Hi Julian,

I found a problem, if not _the_ problem.  There was an old version of
freshclam in /usr/bin, the new version was in /usr/local/bin, and /usr/bin
was first in the path.  I deleted the old version, but then attempts to run
it came back with "can't find freshcalm in /usr/bin" so I dropped a link to
the new one in /usr/bin.  Freshclam seems to be working now.

But... how do I tell the script not to run the "generic" wrapper?

Here's what is in maillog when i run update_virus_scanners:
