[Pkg-clamav-devel] Bug#1027130: libclamav9: LibClamAV Error: Can't verify database integrity

[Jan Huijsmans]

Package: libclamav9
Version: 0.103.7+dfsg-1+b2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

Upgrade of package and related clamav packages to 0.103.7+dfsg-1+b2 resulted
in an inability to verify the clamav database daily.cvd (1st it tries).

Dodngrade of packages clamav-daemon and clamav-freshclam didn't dolve the issue,
libclamav9 needed to be downgraded to 0.103.7+dfsg-0+deb11u1 to be able to start
clamab-daemon again.

Errors in syslog:

LibClamAV Error: Can't load /var/lib/clamav/daily.cvd: Can't verify database integrity
LibClamAV Error: cli_loaddbdir(): error loading database /var/lib/clamav/daily.cvd

Please put the 0.103.7+dfsg-1+b2 version in sid on hold, as it breaks clamav, allowing
virusses to get past the scanner...

Regards,

Jan Huijsmans
