This particular case is more "interesting", as the ClamAV RPM and
Docker image both bundle updated versions of zlib and libxml.


My apologies. I looked in the clamav-0.103.7-1.el7.src.rpm and didn't see a separate libz tar ball hat most bundled packages come with.
```
$ rpm -qlp clamav-0.103.7-1.el7.src.rpm
README.fedora
bytecode-333.cvd
clamav-0.103.7-norar.tar.xz
clamav-0.99-private.patch
clamav-clamonacc-service.patch
clamav-default_confs.patch
clamav-freshclam.service.patch
clamav-milter.systemd
clamav-stats-deprecation.patch
clamav-update.crond
clamav-update.logrotate
clamav.spec
clamd-README
clamd.logrotate
clamd@.service
daily-26614.cvd
freshclam-sleep
freshclam.sysconfig
main-62.cvd
```
If clamav has it in its own source code and an updated version of clamav is downloadable then it will be the maintainer who can do a new build. 
 
Nick, are you in a position to test either the ClamAV RPM or Docker packages
on EL7 ? If the Docker works, you could run clamdscan on the main machine
connecting to the Docker clamd server.
