[Bug 2067608] Re: clamav-freshclam 1.0.5 and logwatch 7.7-1 fails to report

 

So the fix for this bug would be reinserting the line back in freshclam.log, at least on stable releases.
The curious thing is that the message appears in version 0.103.12+dfsg-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 on Focal (a backport), but does not appear in version 0.103.5+dfsg-1 on Jammy, which is older :|
I suspect something else changed from 20.04 to 22.04, not necessarily with the clamav package itself. Still under investigation.

  Expect that daily logwatch emails properly show clamav update
  information.

  I believe that this problem started around the time clamav went to
  version 1.0.x.

  Excerpt from daily logwatch email report...

   --------------------- clam-update Begin ------------------------

   No updates detected in the log for the freshclam daemon (the
   ClamAV update process).  If the freshclam daemon is not running,
   you may need to restart it.  Other options:
   
   A. If you no longer wish to run freshclam, deleting the log file
      (configured is /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log ) will suppress this error message.
   
   B. If you use a different log file, update the appropriate
      configuration file.  For example:
         echo "LogFile = log_file" >> /etc/logwatch/conf/logfiles/clam-update.conf
      where log_file is the filename of the freshclam log file.
   
   C. If you are logging using syslog, you need to indicate that your
      log file uses the syslog format.  For example:
         echo "*OnlyService = freshclam" >> /etc/logwatch/conf/logfiles/clam-update.conf
         echo "*RemoveHeaders" >> /etc/logwatch/conf/logfiles/clam-update.conf
