   An update that has one recommended fix can now be installed.

Description:


   ClamAV was updated to version 0.99, bringing the following fixes and
   enhancements:

   - Support in ClamAV logical signatures for many of the features added for
     YARA, such as Perl Compatible Regular Expressions, alternate strings,
     and YARA string attributes. See signatures.pdf for full details.
   - New and improved on-access scanning for Linux. See clamdoc.pdf for
     details on the new on-access capabilities.
   - A new ClamAV API callback function that is invoked when a virus is
     found. This is intended primarily for applications running in all-match
     mode. Any applications using all-match mode must use the new callback
     function to record and report detected viruses.
   - Configurable default password list to attempt zip file decryption.
   - TIFF file support.
   - A new signature target type for designating signatures to run against
     files with unknown file types.
   - Improved fidelity of the "data loss prevention" heuristic algorithm.
   - Support for LZMA decompression within Adobe Flash files.
   - Support for MSO attachments within Microsoft Office 2003 XML files.
   - A new sigtool option(--ascii-normalize) allowing signature authors to
     more easily generate normalized versions of ascii files.
