I'm having two pretty persistent problems with clamav. The first is that
clamav is complaining about my version being out of date:

I've done so, and there are a lot of "what does this mean", and a fair
number of people who have half installed old versions. I don't think that
is the case for me.
When I start up freshclam, I see this:

Thank you for the detail here. Unfortunately, I had already done much of
that. ldd confirms that both clamd and freshclam are linked to
/usr/local/lib/libclamav.so.1
When I shut down clamd and freshclam, move that library out, and try to
restart, both clamd and freshclam bomb out saying the libr

I don't doubt at all that the problem is on my end. I just for the life

That's correct. I was checking by grepping the "strings" output from each
of the files. Here are my libraries:

I can say for certain that I did not put it into cron, and I have verif
It appears this was the case. I knew it was going to be something so
completely simple that I would be shamed from the list for a while, but I
was so far in the forest, I couldn't see the trees anymore.
BTW, I have no idea how that happened. I am pretty diligent about
shutting things down before
