I'm in the process of installing 0.95rc1, forgot the differences between
installing from source and rpm. When starting clamd I see:
 
Starting Clam AntiVirus Daemon: LibClamAV Error: cli_loadmd5: Problem
parsing database at line 52455
LibClamAV Error: Can't load /var/lib/clamav/securiteinfo.hdb: Malformed
database
ERROR: Malformed database

I'll remove the securiteinfo.hdb for now but I'm more concerned with the
first error. I checked, these are all apparently the ones I installed
this evening:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2757092 2009-03-05 17:42 libclamav.a
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root    1008 2009-03-05 17:42 libclamav.la*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      18 2009-03-05 17:42 libclamav.so ->
libclamav.so.6.0.0*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      18 2009-03-05 17:42 libclamav.so.6 ->
libclamav.so.6.0.0*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2010203 2009-03-05 17:42 libclamav.so.6.0.0*

Once I got rid of the securiteinfo.hdb and made the /var/lib/clamav/tmp
dir clamd ran.

I'll monitor this now and see what happens, could the securiteinfo.hdb
have been causing the crashes all along?
