Sophos Installation issues w/ mailscanner

[Orbitel Webmaster]

History:  I just installed the current version of mailscanner and 
sophos 3.71.  Sophos was installed by 
running /usr/sbin/Sophos.install.  Sophos installs fine and the 
script does not complain about any errors except an unzipping the 
update files failed bad file descriptor error.

Problem: When I run /usr/lib/MailScanner/sohpos-wrapper test file I 
receive Error initializing detection engine - missing main virus data

Additionally, when I run sophos-update I receive:

Unzipping the new Sophos IDE files failed. This may well be because 
your Sophos installation is too old. Please install the latest 
release of SophosUnzip failed with error return 16777215
, Bad file descriptor at ./sophos-autoupdate line 94.

I can, however, get sophos-wrapper to run by commenting out the 
EXPORT sav_ide line.

The files appear to be linked correctly.  I added the necessary 
library paths to /etc/ld.so.conf and added the paths to /etc/profile 
per the installation scripts instructions.  Sweep runs fine on its 
own.

Thank you!

Hopefully some of the following helps:
