Comment 3 for bug 784797

Thank you for taking the time to help make Ubuntu better.

I apologize for not understanding. However, I'm not able to reproduce this bug.
On a fresh ec2 instance (i386), I've tried:
$ sudo apt-get install clamav-freshclam

No errors occur on installation.

$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure clamav-freshclam
# select 'daemon'
# select 'db.local.clamav.net'
# do not enter a proxy (just tab to 'ok')
# use the default '24' times per day
# take default 'No' that freshclam should be notified after updates.

I do not see any errors, nor do I see non ascii characters in /etc/clamav/freshclam.conf.

Could you provide some more information to help us reproduce the problem?
