** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: clamav
  
  In the default configuration, freshclam will fail to notify clamd about
  new signatures and clamd will not restart and continue to use old
  signatures.
  
  In the default configuration, logrotate for clamav-milter will cause
  incorrect permissions.
  
+ In the default configuration, the new bytecode anti-virus checks were
+ inadvertently left disabled.
+ 
  
  TEST CASE:
  
  For clamav-milter, with the current package installed, inspect the
  contents of /etc/logrotate.d/clamav-milter and find that the create line
  only includes the group permissions, not the user (clamav):  "create 640
  adm".  Install the updated packages and check the file again and find
  that it now includes user too: "create 640  clamav adm".
+ 
+ For the freshclam bytcode issue, inspect /etc/clamav/freshclam.conf and
+ note the absence of a Bytecode parameter.  Install the updated packages
+ and see that freshclam.conf now contains "Bytecode true" (or false if
+ the user has set it to false previously).
