[Bug 1398491] [NEW] Clamd init forks too many times

[James Trowbridge]

Public bug reported:

starting the clamav-daemon forks over 300 processes.  To be compatible
with upstart monitoring processes it should fork a maximum of two times

vagrant at vagrant:~$ sudo rm /tmp/strace.log 
vagrant at vagrant:~$ sudo strace -o /tmp/strace.log -fFv /etc/init.d/clamav-daemon start
 * Starting ClamAV daemon clamd                                                                                                                                                                      [ OK ] 
vagrant at vagrant:~$ sudo egrep "\<(fork|clone)\>\(" /tmp/strace.log | wc | awk '{print $1}'
