After upgrading to clamav-toaster-0.96.4-1.3.39 using qtp-newmodel, I
see this in the clamd log:
12-13 11:51:28 LibClamAV Warning: Detected duplicate databases
/usr/share/clamav/main.cvd and /usr/share/clamav/main.cld. The
/usr/share/clamav/main.cvd database is older and will not be loaded, you
should manually remove it from the database directory.
In /usr/share/clamav/ I have this:
-rw-r--r-- 1 clamav clamav 65422336 Nov 14 10:12 main.cld
-rw-r--r-- 1 clamav clamav 22906487 Dec 13 10:55 main.cvd
The main.cvd file appears to have come from the upgrade, given the
date/time stamp.
I also notice that freshclam is not running.
I renamed both files, started freshclam, and in a few minutes a fresh
main.cvd file appeared.
Then I see this in the clamd log:
12-13 12:16:14 LibClamAV Warning: Detected duplicate databases
/usr/share/clamav/daily.cvd and /usr/share/clamav/daily.cld, please
manually remove one of them
I renamed both files, restarted freshclam, and in a few minutes a fresh
daily.cvd file appeared.
I gather from this that the cvd file is preferred, and the cld file is
an older format. Can someone confirm this?
I have 2 things I'd like to resolve. First is, I think it'd be nice if
the spec file would take care of cleaning up the .cld files
automatically. I expect they can be simply removed. The upgrade would
revert to a slightly older main.cvd file, but that would be taken care
of in short time by freshclam.
The 2nd thing is, I wonder why freshclam wasn't (re)started successfully
with the upgrade. It started fine with a "service freshclam start"
command. Has anyone noticed freshclam not running after the upgrade?
