I will if it happens again. But it's been quite a while now without
problems, and (for us) the trigger was clear: the switch of methods by
freshclam. That says that one possible future trigger might be a mirror not
offering the new method, which--speculatively--might cause Freshclam to toss
out daily.inc and download daily.cvd, then later switch back to the new
method again.

Upgrade to the just-released clamav-0.90.1 which fixes this and a few
