Description of problem: Recently updated via `dnf update`, which uplifted clamav-data from 0.103.3-1 to 0.103.3-4. Afterwards, attempts to `clamscan` reported that the database was older than 7 days, and `freshclam` would no longer update `/var/lib/clamav/daily.cvd` via cdiffs. Deleting/renaming /var/lib/clamav/daily.cvd and re-running `freshclam` allows successful full download of daily.cvd from upstream, but this seems counter to the Clam team's intentions. If daily.cvd is not deleted/renamed, `freshclam` appears never to be able to get daily.cvd up to the current version (26275, as of 28-Aug-21). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): clamav-0.103-3-4.fc34 clamav-data-0.103-3-4.fc34 daily.cvd(26209) How reproducible: Forcibly reinstalling clamav-data will (as of 26-Aug-21) daily.cvd back to a version that reports age>7d and does not update Steps to Reproduce: 1. dnf reinstall clamav-data (reverts 2. systemctl restart clamav-freshclam.service (reruns freshclam) 3. tail /var/log/freshclam.log (assumes /etc/freshclam.conf UpdateLogFile and LogVerbose) 4. repeat 2/3 as necessary Actual results: ``` daily database available for update (local version: 26209, remote version: 26275) Retrieving https://database.clamav.net/daily-26210.cdiff cdiff_apply: Parsed 107 lines and executed 107 commands Retrieving https://database.clamav.net/daily-26211.cdiff cdiff_apply: Parsed 41 lines and executed 41 commands ...

[LibClamAV] ************************************************** [LibClamAV] *** The virus database is older than 7 days! *** [LibClamAV] *** Please update it as soon as possible. *** [LibClamAV] ************************************************** ``` Expected results: The database provided by clamav-data should be new enough to be further updated by `freshclam` without multiple attempts or manual intervention. For instance, with no existing daily.cvd, output is... ``` check_for_new_database_version: No local copy of "daily" database. Retrieving https://database.clamav.net/daily.cvd The daily.cvd database downloaded from https://database.clamav.net is older than the version advertised in the DNS TXT record. daily.cvd updated (version: 26273, sigs: 1968259, f-level: 90, builder: raynman) Retrieving https://database.clamav.net/daily-26274.cdiff cdiff_apply: Parsed 212 lines and executed 212 commands Retrieving https://database.clamav.net/daily-26275.cdiff cdiff_apply: Parsed 265 lines and executed 265 commands Properly loaded 1968559 signatures from /var/lib/clamav/tmp.a90089c94d/clamav-62939e8d18862b84ed5036998b9e9088.tmp-daily.cld Database test passed. daily.cld updated (version: 26275, sigs: 1968559, f-level: 90, builder: raynman) ``` Additional info: I think this may be to do with recent (Mar-21) rate-limits put in place by the Clam team, but I can't confirm this. Errors received in freshclam.log appear to be the same as when manually running `freshclam` with an old database. Not sure how viable this is to do in packaging, but maybe a pre-install script could/should check if daily.cvd is newer than the packaged version and skip it? Or maybe I'm not supposed to have both clamav-data and clamav-update installed together, in which case could/should installing one uninstall the other?

you can read the logs with journalctl -u clamav-freshclam.service --since "4 days ago" , and as I suspected I think it was a mirror problem that was solved by upstream ...
