It's really only a problem from a packaging point of view. I have a
spec file that builds rpms, one of which is clamav-db it contains
only the two cvd files. Since I need to download them at some point it
makes no difference in terms of download size, but it does break my
spec file if they are not there.

I suppose that it offers a chance for main.cvd to contain all the
signatures and for daily.cvd to be empty, that way you know you updated
the clamav packages.
