Thanks for the suggestion; I was able to get some older signatures from
some older rpm packages e.g. https://pkgs.org/download/clamav-db

However, these were mostly main.cvd and so old that comparisons weren't all
that useful unfortunately.

I don't think the main apt-based distros have included signatures in their
packages for quite some time AFAICS.

Thanks for the offer, that would be great. Ideally perhaps it'd be useful
to see daily signatures from something like:

* end of Dec 2017 / start of Jan 2018
* end of Mar / start of Apr 2018
* end of Jun / start of Jul 2018
* end of Sep / start of Oct 2018
* end of Dec 2018 / start of Jan 2019
* end of Mar / start of Apr 2019

Any samples covering roughly that period would be useful; doesn't have to
be these specific dates / intervals.

Very much appreciate if you could share links to these, thanks again.
