Nah, Brian, in this case it's actually a bug, albeit a "cosmetic" one. I
have been getting the same misleading error message on every system ever
since I upgraded to 0.99.4 - so I suspect many, if not all others, have too:

        Thu Mar 08 11:46:31 2018 -> WARNING: Local version: clamav-0.99.4
Recommended version: 0.99.4

So, thanks Brian, for being the one reporting it. I had "let it slide"
though, given that they had just hoped to have fixed that same error last
weekend, when FreshClam thought that even 0.99.3 was recommended instead of
an already installed 0.99.4. 

Clearly there is some imperfect comparison being performed prior to issuing
this message, when even identical "local" vs. "recommended" versions are
evaluated as "not equal".

It's worth checking that you only have one clamav binary installed, just to
be on the safe side.
