Convincing packagers to recommend (not sure if anything but clam
supports this...) / have clamav as a dependency might help....
(Although it would probably help if Wine uses libclamav to scan all
files before running/load even if the clamav daemon is not running and
libclam is present...) (No idea what infrastructure that would
require, but it sould need a way to turn it of, etc... Also not sure
if that is something Wine is supposed to do...)
