Package: clamav-freshclam Severity: normal Hi,
in response to #305483, the permissions on freshclam.conf have been tightened because the file _might_ contain proxy passwords. This has made freshclam unuseable from a normal unprivileged account. Please provider possibility to use freshclam as a normal user. People might want to use freshclam to write databases to their home directory (clamav-getfiles depends on this). In my opinion, freshclam.conf should be world readable by default, with the documented option for people who use proxy authentication that the permissions on freshclam.conf need to be tightened _then_. But I think that having the permissions on freshclam.conf _that_ tight is way over the top. Please reconsider.
