Sorry, I was busy writing this mail.

Well, I'm not ClamAV, but I would bring order into the file chaos.
clam*d*scan should have its own config and clamscan too, because the two 
configs are not compatible.
For this reason I would wish that there would be also the option 
--config-file=URL with clamscan, in order to be able to load then the ONLY FOR 
clamscan valid settings.
As I said, as soon as you want to use an option of clam*d* scan for clamdscan, 
the whole process stops, customer-friendly is so I think not.

If the daemon also has its own configuration, then you have to think about what 
the config file could be called.

Well on my PC I changed a lot because the naming was too messy for me.

I have "program" clam*d*scan for which I have a clam*d*.conf and a "program"
clamscan for which I have a clamscan.conf. And then the normal "program"
freshclam with the freshclam.conf.
That is logic ;-)

To feed clam*d*scan and clamscan with the same conf is stupid, because both
programs have different options.
clamscan (no 'd') does not have a config file at all.
Which options do you want to be different ?
Many of the options are the same. At least as a default I would expect the
   --scan-* --alert-* --max-* --*-pua options to be the same.

(Ignoring the freshclam config) clamscan *does not have a config file*
so there is curently no need for an option
        --config-file=FILE

As I asked before,
which settings do you expect clamscan to read from this config ?


Now it would be still super, if one would have the option --config-file=FILE
with the clamscan, as it is also the case with the clam*d*scan. If I want to
use the clamscan mutze and --config-file=URL, then this is of course not
possible and it breaks everything!

can nobody explain, what this message exactly mean?
I Get the on lot of my E-mails
LibClamAV Warning: PNG: Unexpected early end-of-file.
That just means that the PNG file is either not a PNG for or is corrupted
- perhaps truncated.

Should i change something in my config for clamscan?
No.

And mybe devs of clamav reas here to, it would be really nice, if you can
add
the optional paramteter "---cofig-file="FILE" to clamscan too. Currnty
only
cmab*d*scan has the option
The config file is for the clamd *daemon*.
clamd and clamdscan refer to it, but clamscan does not refer
this config file (although it *does* refer to freshclam.conf).

Which settings do you expect clamscan to read from this config ?
