We have a large number of old daily.cvd and daily.cld accumulated over the past several years. I have kept them in case an update caused a problem and I had to go back to make ClamAV work until the next update. (I really should delete most of them!)
Given some dates, I could upload a few to our Website and provide URLs. P.S. The CVDs are from the era when the ClamAV "local mirror" approach still worked. The CLDs are recent, after the move to Cloudflare caused updates to fail here until we switched to using the CDIFF/CLD method from *each* machine on our LAN. (The problem was that our nearby Cloudflare Anycast mirror, "BOS", often didn't have the latest CVD version that was advertised by the ClamAV DNS TXT record. And since Cloudflare uses Anycast, not CNAME, there was no way around it.)
