[ZendTo] Sorry I tried 5 times (Jose M. Sanchez)

[Jules Field]

I've just tried ZendTo on Ubuntu 22 and it appears to be working okay,

EXCEPT for ClamAV.

The problem appears to be that freshclam timed out while fetching the 
main AV signature database into /var/lib/clamav/main.cvd.
As a result, the service clamav-daemon won't start. Do
     systemctl status clamav-daemon
and you'll see what I mean.
But freshclam's attempts to get it failed, so it got blocked by the CDN 
and isn't allowed to try again for another 24 hours.
There appears to be no way of manually bypassing this.

In ClamAV 105 they have improved the download code so that it abandons 
an attempt to download signatures if the download doesn't appear to be 
making progress. Whether this actually helps with this problem, I'm not 
sure as I'm blocked until late tomorrow afternoon whatever.

I think they used to ship the main AV signatures with the package, so it 
worked out of the box. It now relies on their CDN and freshclam to 
download the signatures, and that doesn't always succeed. So you're dead 
in the water until it does. Poo. :-(

Anyone got any ideas on this one?
I don't want to make the Installer manually fetch it from clamav.net as 
then upgrades aren't automatic, I want to use repos wherever possible.

Cheers,
Jules.
