ClamAV Problem

It looks like the main.cvd file has one or more level 10 signatures in
it.

The ClamAV team are aware of it, and working on it.

I guess they're going to have to rebuild main.cvd and reissue it.

Cheers,

Phil

As of yesterday, I've started seeing the following in the mail log,  
being dumped by MailScanner:

ClamAVModule::LibClamAV Warning:  
********************************************************
ClamAVModule::LibClamAV Warning: ***  This version of the ClamAV  
engine is outdated.  ***

ClamAVModule::LibClamAV Warning:  
********************************************************

However, running "freshclam" says:

ClamAV update process started at Sun Nov  5 21:33:52 2006
main.cvd is up to date (version: 41, sigs: 73809, f-level: 10,

daily.cvd is up to date (version: 2162, sigs: 1601, f-level: 9,  
builder: arnaud)

So at least THAT bit jives with MailScanner's interpretation of the  
situation.

Now to the weird part:

$ clamscan --version
ClamAV 0.88.5/2162/Sun Nov  5 19:14:36 2006

Erm, 0.88.5 is the *latest* STABLE (ie, "non-RC") build available for  
ClamAV.  So how do I fix this?  It's seriously playing havoc with my  
stats and the logs are as messy as hell :(

Any help appreciated :)

Cheers,

James
