We'll settle for this partial-update, at least for now.

I ran into this same problem and just deleted /var/lib/clamav/daily.c[lv]d
and ran freshclam again.

If that doesn't help, check that the timeouts in your configuration
file for freshclam aren't very short.  A long time ago the default was
30 seconds I think, but that's too short now - the default now is to
have no timeout at all.  Until the recent updates to main and daily I
had ReceiveTimeout set to 1800 seconds.  Even that was too short here,
so I've now set it to 3600 seconds.

Can we take it that the computer's clock is set correctly?
