[clamav-users] ClamAV installation is OUTDATED! as reported by freshclam utility on CentOS Linux release 7.6.1810 (Core)

ClamAV cannot control when the package distros update their packages.  Also, some of the package maintainers, I suspect, rely on updates like that to tell them when they need to go update packages.
