clamavcpandebianperlUbuntu

After successful

apt-get install clamav

I then did:

perl -MCPAN -e shell
install File::Scan::ClamAV 

and got

  CPAN.pm: Going to build J/JA/JAMTUR/File-Scan-ClamAV-1.91.tar.gz

Cannot find clamd in /root/bin (or a number of other places)
 - are you sure clamav in installed?

clamd means clamav daemon. You need install clamav-daemon package.
