F-Prot successfully updated.

I get this message in my log every hour. I didn't believe F-Prot updated
their files this often so I started f-prot-autoupdate by hand. Even when
it reports "Nothing to be done." I get "F-Prot successfully updated."

Could the logging be changed to show whether a real update has taken
place or not?

I tried this patch:
|~> diff -u /usr/lib/MailScanner/f-prot-autoupdate .
