[Clamav-users] Clamav Engine upgrades?

[Ryan Moore]

Over the past few days I've had a few reports of a virus getting 
through, and while the sig database has that virus listed (sigtool -l), 
I don't see any blocks in my messages log. I'm still running a slightly 
older version of clamav on most my boxes (0.72) since there were some 
issues with the newer versions over the past few weeks, though I'm 
thinking they may have been resolved?

My main question is, that with some of these new signatures that have 
been released, do they need an upgrade of the scanning engine 
(libclamav?) itself? I'm guessing the answer is yes, and also wondering 
if there is a way to include automated notification when freshclam runs 
perhaps. Such that if freshclam downloads a signature and if the 
signature has a 'engine version requirement' or some attribute that can 
be compared against the installed engine, if the installed engine isn't 
newer, give a nasty warning in the log.

Not sure if this has been discussed before, if so I appologize as I must 
have missed the thread.
