As both show, you've got an old version manually installed in /usr/bin. Remove this manually installed version and correct any scripts that start freshclam/clamav.


Thanks for all the help on this - I unmerged clamav and manually deleted
the copy in /usr/local/bin

Then did a "find / -name freshclam" - Nothing was found.  I emerged
clamav again and now only a single instance can be found at
"/usr/bin/freshclam"

Freshclam --version shows "ClamAV 0.80/507/Mon Sep 27 10:53:21 2004

However running freshclam shows :

ClamAV update process started at Mon Jan 24 11:40:36 2005 Reading CVD

Should I be concerned about this - do I still need to zap something or
do something to resolve this error ?

I have looked @ clamav.net but it just tells me to update to the latest
stable - which I am running right ?

Confused - if anyone can help further I would appreciate it.

You also need to remove the old library files that were installed with the older version of ClamAV before you do a 'fresh' install. This is why your freshclam shows that it is outdated.

I had the same problem and it took me several install and un-installs before I figured it out. I had initially just installed the new version without first un-installing the old. I'll never do that again :)
