This is correct. Although I haven't tested it, the version of the package for Ubuntu 12.04 ought to be source compatible with Squeeze. You can dget the package from here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/clamav_0.98.6%2Bdfsg-0ubuntu0.12.04.1.dsc It should be signed by a member of the Ubuntu Security Team (they did the upload). The changes between what's in Jessie or Wheezy S-P-U should be reasonably reviewable. A version update would be generally preferable since with clamav there is increased security risk due to lack of capability.
