Hi,

yes, same version:
# clamscan --version
ClamAV 0.103.5/26498/Thu Mar 31 10:19:05 2022
# clamdscan --version
ClamAV 0.103.5/26498/Thu Mar 31 10:19:05 2022

But file isn't detected by clamscan - both (clamscan/clamdscan) reports, 
that file is clean. Only clamscan write some debug with virus detection, 
or detect it with -z.
