the rpmlint output and justification

clamsmtp.x86_64: W: non-standard-uid /var/run/clamsmtp clamsmtp
clamsmtp.x86_64: W: non-standard-uid /var/log/clamsmtp clamsmtp
clamsmtp.x86_64: W: non-standard-uid /var/lib/clamsmtp clamsmtp

This is so that the clamd instance and clamsmtp are isolated from someone on
the system injecting/overriding the file being scanned.

clamsmtp.x86_64: W: dangling-relative-symlink /usr/sbin/clamd.clamsmtp
../../usr/sbin/clamd

Not sure why it complains here, the symlink works perfectly when installed

clamsmtp.x86_64: E: no-status-entry /etc/rc.d/init.d/clamd-clamsmtp
clamsmtp.x86_64: W: no-reload-entry /etc/rc.d/init.d/clamd-clamsmtp
clamsmtp.x86_64: E: subsys-not-used /etc/rc.d/init.d/clamd-clamsmtp
clamsmtp.x86_64: W: no-reload-entry /etc/rc.d/init.d/clamsmtpd

These are all pretty much bogus, the clamd initscript is a wrapper around
/usr/share/clamav/clamd-wrapper which has all of the parts this is warning
about.

To create this clamd instance I followed the instructions in the README of the
clamav-server package. 

I debated creating a subpackage for the clamd instance, but decided against it.
I guess it is possible that someone would want to install clamsmtp without a
pre-setup clamd instance, however they can still do so with this setup. Granted
installing this will pull in clamav-server and its dependancies. 

So that's basically what I'm wondering... should it be split in two?
