From previous experiences going back to FC3 the Clamav package is
only updated by the Fedora Team when there is a new release ie FC13.
The FC12 package is currently stuck on 0.95.3.

And 0.95.3 is not affected (at this time) by the EOL of 0.94. Although
it does not use the new signatures, it does not crash on them either
so.... you are OK.
You can build from source and FC12 should have no dependencies that
are not met.
And it looks like it will be FC 14 that is the first release with 0.96
Jim
I take it from your reply that 0.96 was released after FC13 was frozen
and we will have to wait until the end of the year for an 0.96 rpm.
I have no idea about how or who gets the package into the current fedora
release but I do find it odd the given the amount of security updates
thrown at us weekly (i think I had about 140 odd last week for FC12)
that something as fundamental as a virus scanning tool only gets
upgraded at a major release.
