[Pkg-clamav-devel] Question about CL_FLEVEL_DCONF

Hi all,

I've prepared patched packages for lenny that could get uploaded to
lenny-security. Before asking the security team for permission, however, I'd
like to understand whether they work as expected. My concern is about the newly
introduced CL_FLEVEL_DCONF that should allow us to push the supported f-level.
Still, we the patched packages, I'm getting this from freshclam:

daily.cvd updated (version: 9219, sigs: 38660, f-level: 42, builder: ccordes)
WARNING: Your ClamAV installation is OUTDATED!
WARNING: Current functionality level = 38, recommended = 42
DON'T PANIC! Read http://www.clamav.net/support/faq

That is, the reported f-level is 38 even though CL_FLEVEL_DCONF is set to 41. If
the above is correct, when does CL_FLEVEL_DCONF come into play at all? Could I
test that somehow?

Thanks,
Michael
