Too much dependencies are usually a sign of bad packaging ;) Please,
when core amavisd works without clamav, then clamav should not be
required by the core package. Put useful, but non-core functionality
with extra dependencies into their own subpackages.  People which want
minimal systems will be very thankfully :)
