I have reviewed the documentation and found some of the information that I am looking for. But I need documentation on the exact process and the steps that freshclam performs when it updates a pattern file. Something link, freshclam checks and finds a new pattern file, the files is downloaded to a temporary file, the temportary file's MD5 signature is checked and if correct the process continues, the old pattern file is backed up, the temp file is moved to the active pattern file, and clamd is notified of the up date. I am most interested in the process that freshclam used to verify the new file using the MD5 signature included.
