Title:
  clamav-daemon doesn't start after installation

Status in clamav package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in clamav source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed
Status in clamav package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * Installing clamav the user expects things start to run
   * Naturally the daemon can only run after the virus-database is updated 
    (conditions in systemd service)
   * But the freshclam service to update the virus-db is not starting either 
     since the move to systemd (Regression to old behavior)

  [Test Case]

   * (enable proposed if needed)
   * apt-get install clamav-freshclam
   * systemctl status clamav-freshclam.service
   * this should show "active" (fixed) and not just "loaded" (broken)

  [Regression Potential]

   * The fix is fairly straightforward so there shouldn't be a lot. But it 
     affects postinst and while not changing, it has to move some code there 
     and might affect something in postinst I missed to think about.

   * It worked for adt in Y & X and for my manual tests in LXD containers 
     fine

  [Other Info]
   
   * This is (intentionally) only addressing the regression for now.
     Once fixed we think of splitting the part of auto-starting clamav-
     daemon later on once the DB is ready


  
  Steps to reproduce:

  1. Fresh 16.04 Server installation
  2. "sudo apt-get install clamav-daemon clamav-freshclam"
  3. ClamAV doesn't start even though it should.

  $ systemctl status clamav-daemon
  ● clamav-daemon.service - Clam AntiVirus userspace daemon
     Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/clamav-daemon.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
     Active: inactive (dead)
  Condition: start condition failed at Thu 2016-06-09 11:58:19 EEST; 7min ago
       Docs: man:clamd(8)
             man:clamd.conf(5)
             http://www.clamav.net/lang/en/doc/

  $ systemctl status clamav-freshclam.service
  ● clamav-freshclam.service - ClamAV virus database updater
     Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/clamav-freshclam.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
     Active: inactive (dead)
       Docs: man:freshclam(1)
             man:freshclam.conf(5)
             http://www.clamav.net/lang/en/doc/

  Also directory /var/run/clamav/ mentioned in /etc/clamav/clamd.conf
  seems to be missing.
