-1, Flamebait ;-)
Why? First of all, the package doesn't come from freshrpms, but
rpmforge, as I've never packaged it on freshrpms ;-)
Second, you should contact Dries and suggest :
1) To remove the rpmforge clamav packages for the Fedora releases which
have them in Extras
2) To consider using the clamav-db name instead of clamav-data
Then also poke the Extras clamav maintainer to have the proper
"Obsoletes: clamav-db <= last-known-V-R" added to the clamav-data
package.
I read several complaints on fedora-list about the way clamav is
packaged in Extras, I think that's why a lot of people use the RPMs from
other repos...
Not just the packaging, but the lack of updates to the application (not
the virus sigs):

I have given up on FE's packaging at this point and gone ahead and
updated from source to 0.90.1 on FC6.
While there were some changes that needed to be made in configs, etc, it
wasn't tragic.
Enrico is going to have to address this at some point, or perhaps step
aside and let someone else take on the burden. I appreciate his
hesitancy regarding compatibility issues, but we all deal with that at
some point or another in the life span of applications.
