It looks to me like this is likely an error in the debconf package, not
in clamav itself.
** Package changed: clamav (Ubuntu) = debconf (Ubuntu)
** Description changed:
- I closed the app center before the install finished. The app seems to
- work as intended despite the error and the software center shows it as
- installed.
+ From the terminal log:
