your decision but i would have asked on a distribution forum to get the 
root cause fixed

after 15 years Fedora everywhere with more than 600 dist-upgrades you 
can imagine the row number of dependecy problems but to re-install a 
system? never ever and when .deb can get a state where you need this 
because fix some isue with the package database takes more than 5 
minutes switch to something serious - but i doubt that is the case

on rpm systems:
rpm -qa | grep clamav
rpm -e --nodpes clampackage1 clampackage2....
dnf install clam.....
