--- Comment #3 from John Florian <jflorian at doubledog.org> ---
I also ran into this bug.  I had installed amavisd-new (on Fedora 18), which
pulled in several clam dependencies, but missed this one on
clamav-server-sysvinit.   As a result amavis was throwing warnings like:

amavis[12756]: (12756-03) (!)connect to /var/spool/amavisd/clamd.sock failed,
attempt #1: Can't connect to UNIX socket /var/spool/amavisd/clamd.sock: No such
file or directory

With the large number of clam packages (and some with buggy package
descriptions), it was a challenge to figure out what was needed to resolve the
above error message.  Fortunately I decided to check BZ before putting too much
work into the diagnosis as this bug report gave me just the answer I needed:

yum install clamav-server-sysvinit
systemctl start clamd.amavisd.service

With that simple task done, now amavis can talk to clamd successfully.  Seems
like this should be an easy bug to fix that would make this common setup very
easy for people -- it's so close now, especially compared to what it used to
require!
