clamav-data-empty installs by default, so had to specify to load the
one with the database files, I specified to disable the updates repo
to intentionally install a older version.
ok. I did this with the existing epel5 clamav packages as above.
# ls /var/lib/clamav/
daily.cvd main.cvd
# ls /var/lib/clamav/
daily.cvd main.cvd
# vi /etc/freshclam.conf (comment out the Example line)
# freshclam
# ls /var/lib/clamav/

# yum update clamav
# ls /var/lib/clamav/
bytecode.cvd daily.cvd daily.cvd.rpmsave main.cld main.cvd

# ls /var/lib/clamav/

clamscan runs fine with no warning here.
Note that this package uses /var/clamav/ for data, not /var/lib/clamav/
I don't see the duplicate db's either.
The update installed a older database than what was already on disk,
and also left clamav in a condition that has to be manually
corrected. The -empty package doesn't have this issue.
Was this with the epel packages? Or Fedora ones?
