Greetings,

I'm running ClamAV with an additional third party virus database. That
database is kept up to date by specifying the files shipped by it as
DatabaseCustomURL entries in freshclam.conf like this:

DatabaseCustomURL http://database-provider.example/third-party-db.cdb
[More entries like the one above omitted here...]

That way freshclam updates both the original ClamAV database and the
third party files we specified.

I would like to change this setup, so it only uses the third-party
database and not the original ClamAV database, but I see no way to tell
freshclam not to download the standard main.cvd and friends.

I don't think I can specify the third-party mirror as a PrivateMirror,
because it doesn't contain the files freshclam usually expects on a
ClamAV mirror (main.cvd, daily.cvd, ...). It also doesn't seem to be
possible to instruct freshclam to use no DatabaseMirror, because if I
don't specify one, freshclam will just use database.clamav.net as a default.

Is there some way to get freshclam to do what I want here or maybe some
other way (without freshclam) to update only the third-party database?

Regards
Sven
