I tried to update clamav via virtualmin and got an error, which isnt obvious from the message:

try installing clamav manually?

goto shell and type:
yum install clamav

Now go back and do that last step you did to see if it fixed it.

This is not a standard pkg.

clamav = 0.88.1-2.vm

This is a Virtualmin pkg. Can I just simply remove the VM pkg and go with a standard Centos pkg?

From searching I found this new thread that I believe acknowledges this issue.

Can I just simply remove the VM pkg and go with a standard Centos pkg?

There is no standard CentOS ClamAV package. CentOS 5 should have the latest Clam package already. CentOS 4 has some dependency issues at the moment, as I've moved to a single Clam spec for all CentOS versions (the same one that Fedora provides, with a few modifications to build on CentOS), but they should be resolved in the next day or so.

Thanks for the fix on this issue, Joe/team.... My CentOS 4.6 installation updated properly today.

--Ivan

Thanks for the update Ivan! Finally...That was ridiculous. Sometimes I'm amazed at how ornery RPM can be about dependencies--I ended up explicitly adding both an Obsoletes (to get rid of clamd) and a Provides (to convince RPM that the clamav-server package really does provide /usr/sbin/clamd, even though it's clearly in the package). And of course, this all happened after an upgrade of mock (the cross-version build tool for RPMs) that broke building for CentOS 4 and CentOS 3. ;-)

Yup, everything is good on my Centos 5 as well. Thanks Joe!
