[clamav-users] clamAV: Re: problem in DB update

[Cedric Bhihe]

Hallo Harald,
What I am writing about is that in the past few weeks, root has been
getting a daily email with exactly the content you quoted. It had not
always been so before.
In other words I did not use to get a straight 100% update, say a year
ago, but rather an update process sufficiently long so that the log-
trace for the db-update would show:  28% ..45% ...87%.. 100%.
So I am wondering whether I really get an update here or if something
is wrong. Help welcome, sarcastic or vaguely disparaging comments not.
Cheers, -cedric
