I have been looking into this, and it seems likely that this is
a false
positive. The code "6606621" was
also used for a CUPS file, and according to VirusTotal only
ClamAV reported an
issue. Information
here:
https://www.virustotal.com/#/file/e770c592101a051e7a8d45a618c06244c301a8a6bcdec3f4dcc73a27b425c37b/detection
Uploading to VirusTotal could help us figure out whether it's a
valid report in
this case too,
though be aware that you will need to run non-free JS within
your browser to use
the page.
I did some research on the file in question, too. It seems that
ClamAV
flags it as a virus due to some bad checking on the hexcode in the
file.
This has actually been reported to ClamAV in the past.
In summary, this package is not problematic.
