I have backported software many times. It usually needs much time,
though in concrete case I suppose not so much because you can install
dependencies with 'apt-get build-deps clamav'. Furthermore, then you
have to update it manually. On the other hand, I'm sure the packages
will be updated in Devuan, just with a relatively long delay. It's
always so with Debian clamav packages.
