Thanks very much for the review.  I should have mentioned that I knew rpmlint
barfed lots, mostly due to this being a very weird package.

> W: clamav-exim no-url-tag

There isn't a relevant URL.

> W: clamav-exim no-documentation

There are no docs, though maybe I should write a short README.

> E: clamav-exim incoherent-logrotate-file /etc/logrotate.d/clamd.exim

Is this the filename (i.e. clamd.exim) that it's complaining about? If so, I
know it's not the same as the package but the convention wasn't invented by me
but does make sense.

> E: clamav-exim non-standard-uid /var/run/clamd.exim clamexim
> E: clamav-exim non-standard-gid /var/run/clamd.exim exim
> E: clamav-exim non-standard-dir-perm /var/run/clamd.exim 0750
> E: clamav-exim non-standard-gid /var/log/clamd.exim exim

I don't really understand these; the uid/gid/perms are intended and correct.

> E: clamav-exim non-root-group-log-file /var/log/clamd.exim exim

So, clamexim.root then? Howveer, users in the "exim" group might conceivably
want read-access to the logs.

> W: clamav-exim dangerous-command-in-%post chmod
> ^ If you really need a log file, perhaps create in %install?

I could do. However, this stuff all came from the original spec fragments that
were checked into the clamav package by David Woodhouse (dwmw2 at redhat). Given
that David is more experienced than me I was deferring to his judgement. Any
other thoughts from others would be welcome.

> E: clamav-exim init-script-name-with-dot /etc/rc.d/init.d/clamd.exim

See above discussion about the clamd.exim convention.

> E: clamav-exim no-status-entry /etc/rc.d/init.d/clamd.exim
> W: clamav-exim no-reload-entry /etc/rc.d/init.d/clamd.exim
> E: clamav-exim subsys-not-used /etc/rc.d/init.d/clamd.exim

These are all bogus considering that the init script is essentially just a
pointer to the main clamav one.

> W: clamav-exim incoherent-init-script-name clamd.exim

See above discusion about the clamd.exim convention.

> license (GPL) OK, need text in %doc.

Well, there is no text "upstream" (because there isn't an upstream) so this
isn't essential.

> No upstream, is this okay?

Well, there's no upstream to have, this package is really not much more than
metadata for packaging consistency

> macro use not consistent between %var and %{var}

I'll review, though I didn't think there was a problem with %x and %{x} where
used for clarity.

Thanks again.
