I asked about clamav on the repoforge list, and apparently there are 
some longstanding on-going issues with rpmforge, not sure exactly what 
and that apparently for quite some time some people have been attempting 
to resolve them.

Due to the length of time that these problems have existed there's also 
a fair amount of skepticism that the issues will be resolved.

There are several suggestions on how to resolve the clamav issue, one of 
them was to use the version from epel which is what I opted to do.  
Depending on your point of view I found it to be a relatively easy 
switch, just had to deal with a few ownership issues.

All in all it's a shame that there are issues as I've used rpmforge for 
years and have been pleased with the repo.
