Thanks for pointing that out. I had not even noticed the differences.
When I installed clamav and everything, I let yum do it, so I just
assumed it would pull in all the right pieces. I know not to mix
repositories, so I'm at a loss how this happened. I assume now I have
to install the correct clamav package and clamav-db? What would best
practices do - remove the earlier version and start over? It's been
quite a while since I did any stuff on the machine, as it just runs and
works as it's supposed to do, but I see now I need to start playing
catch-up.
I'd make sure all the 3rd party repos are disabled in their
/etc/yum.repos.d files, do an 'rpm -e ...' of any questionable packages,
then do a 'yum --enablerepo=reponame install package1 package2...' so
you can group the specific sets together from the same repo. That
doesn't guarantee it will come out right but at least it gives a hint
about what you want to happen.
