Hello,

I am getting this message and for now I have answered “keep the local”.

Is this the correct option or we should be checking differences and making changes?

…or install the package maintainer’s version?

Thank you for the reply.
In regards to config files such as freshclam.conf, can we edit them manually if we need more settings (i.e logging?)

I noticed that the log file /var/log/clamavfreshclam.log was empty so I added logging settings in the config.
I restarted the service and the log file was populated properly. I see now however that the settings I put manually are gone from the config file.
What is the solution to this?
