Package: clamav-daemon Version: 0.83-3 Severity: normal Good day,
Before my workaround (seeb below), clamd started correctly, but as soon as was is "told" to process a file it segfaulted :- Sun Apr 3 16:46:54 2005 -> +++ Started at Sun Apr 3 16:46:54 2005 Sun Apr 3 16:46:54 2005 -> clamd daemon 0.83 (OS: linux-gnu, ARCH: i386, CPU: i386) Sun Apr 3 16:46:54 2005 -> Log file size limit disabled.

I tried changing various options, changing MaxThreads to 1, using TcpAddr instead of LocalSocket; after some googling I found a post about using LD_ASSUME_KERNEL, and added "export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1" to just before start-stop-daemon in init.d/clamav-daemon and now its managed to process several messages with no problems. The following : http://people.redhat.com/drepper/assumekernel.html, seems to imply that the application is broken although given the fact that clamd would seem to work on host (not u-m-l) linux judging from the lack of bug reports I assume this has more todo with u-m-l than clamd. mysqld apparently has the same problem as reported by somebody else on the same hosting servive I'm using, perhaps other threaded applications also have this problem. I've tried stracing and gdbing without success but I've little experience with debugging threaded applications.
