Package: clamav-daemon
Version: 0.98.7+dfsg-0+deb8u1
It would appear that ClamD should function on a system without SystemD.

However, the package depends on SystemD libraries, and the daemon won't start
without the library being present.
# /etc/init.d/clamav-daemon start
[....] Starting ClamAV daemon: clamd /usr/sbin/clamd: error while loading
shared libraries: libsystemd.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file
or directory
Suggested fix :
Remove the dependency - if package systemd is installed (ie SystemD is the init
system) then the library will be present, if the library isn't present then the
init system is not SystemD and there should be no need to call any of it's
libraries.
Test for the presence of the library before attempting to use it.

That's not how library linking works.
And anyway, if you're not running systemd, clamd will only call one function
from libsystemd (sd_listen_fds), which first checks the LISTEN_PID environment
variable, and if it's not set, immediately returns.
Any check for library existence would waste more CPU cycles.

Actually, I'm closing this bug now, as it's obviously invalid.
Best regards,
