If you are concerned about a new version of clamav 'failing', you may want to consider installing the volatile version separately, and keep the stable version as 'backup'. Then you could create a piece of code (in procmail, or wherever convenient) to check that the volatile ClamAV did not return an error. If it does, run the stable version, which you can store separately, but still use the same database. Naturally, until you discover the problem with the latest version, you'll take a performance hit, but this provides maximal AV protection for the system. Better than continuing to run on an out-dated engine.
