I seem to have been getting the daily updates. I've not seen the error message before. Perhaps it's just because clamd was not started at bootup (or at all before freshclam ran), do you think?
Yes. Because freshclam tries to tell clamd that there have been updates, so that clamd reloads the databases. So if clamd wasn't running, freshclam cannot connect to it.
