[clamav-users] ClamAV(R) blog: ClamAV 0.99.4 has been released!

[Freddie Cash]

If you would take the time to actually read the message, you'd see that
freshclam is routing the local version as 0.99.4 and complaining that is
behind the recommended version of 0.99.4.

IOW, it's a spurious error message that's complaining incorrectly.
Something the ClamAV devs will need to fix.

Cheers,
Freddie

and why don't you just read http://www.clamav.net/documents/upgrading-clamav

frankly even if it would say "clamav-0.99.3 Recommended version: 0.99.4"
the DON'T PANIC applies because when you ue LTS distributions it#s pretty
common that the version of many packages don't change but security related
and critical fixes are backported

the PHP 5.4 of RHEL/CentOS as example is not just a plain, never updated
PHP 5.4
