I just upgraded clamav to the latest svn version an hour ago. Now, when I run 
clamd I get the following message:

  Virus definition file /var/lib/clamav/main.cvd is missing.
  Either install the clamav-db package or run freshclam
  to get the virus definitions.


When I run freshclam I get:

ClamAV update process started at Sat Aug  4 13:04:57 2007
main.inc is up to date (version: 44, sigs: 133163, f-level: 20, builder: sven)
daily.inc is up to date (version: 3854, sigs: 8990, f-level: 20, builder: 
ccordes)

I haven't changes any of the config option to the configure script nor have I 
changed location for any of the scripts, libs etc. In other words, the setup 
has always been the same.

The only difference, I could make out is that, clamd is looking for main.cvd 
while, /var/lib/clamav contains a directory main.inc along with others like 
daily.inc. I am guessing here, the database structure has been changed and  
now stored in directories main.inc and daily.inc while, clamd code contiunes 
to look for main.cvd and hence, the problem.

I have tried searching mailing list and the web with the error message as the 
search word to end up with nothing really.

Can someone tell me what am I doing wrong or what is going on ?

Thanks for any help.

Kevin
