On C6 my source is EPEL from mirrors.n-ix.net

clamav.x86_64         0.98.1-1.el6     @epel
clamav-db.x86_64      0.98.1-1.el6     @epel

On C5 its Dag/rpmforge from ftp.nluug.nl

clamav.x86_64           0.98-2.el5.rf      installed
clamav-db.x86_64        0.98-2.el5.rf      installed
clamav-devel.x86_64     0.98-2.el5.rf      installed
clamav-milter.x86_64    0.98-2.el5.rf      installed

My C5 logwatch error message is

    WARNING: Your ClamAV installation is OUTDATED!
    WARNING: Local version: 0.98 Recommended version: 0.98.1

0.98-2 suggests revision 2 of 0.98, which is therefore older than 0.98.1

Dag, can you assist ??

Thanks / Dank je wel
