On the two Fedora core 1 systems I've tried to update, ClamAV 0.80rc3
compiles but fails with a core dump:

        [root at dedicated tmp]# clamscan .
        LibClamAV Error: Signature for TR.DiskEraser.9 is too short
        LibClamAV Error: cli_parse_add(): Problem adding signature
        LibClamAV Error: Problem parsing signature at line 12089
        LibClamAV Error: Problem parsing database at line 12089
        LibClamAV Error: Malformed database file /tmp/clamav-
c24da630dfdfbaed/viruses.db
        Segmentation fault


The errors that occurred during the compile:
