MS 4.23-11: buglet in update_virus_scanners

[Peter Bonivart]

Fixed the grep thing but had another small problem with the update
script. I got an error from the F-secure test. It correctly identified
only Clam being installed but it erred on F-secure. I did some tests and
found this line to be at fault (however I don't know why):

     if ${WRAPPER} "${PACKAGEDIR}" -IsItInstalled

I removed the F-secure line from the virus list and all was well. I
don't see why the F-secure line was any different. Anyone else having this?
