main.cvd rarely changes (last update was Jan 2018), it is only when the daily gets so large they push a bunch of signatures over. Bytecode also does not get updated very often. Really the only things are daily & safebrowsing (if enabled) that change regularly.
Since the are 'signed' files, there's really no way for a 3rd party to fudge them (afaik). I don't think it would be wise to include stub files, because if there is a network issue during install a person could falsely believe that their installation was successful and being protected, when they really aren't. Even if you are including files that are slightly outdated, that's giving them some level of protection out of the box. _______________________________________________ clamav-users mailing list clamav-users@lists.clamav.net https://lists.clamav.net/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/vrtadmin/clamav-faq http://www.clamav.net/contact.html#ml
