Solved ClamAV needs updating but...

I was having a look in /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log and it says:

Code: 
Received signal: wake up
ClamAV update process started at Sat May  9 04:00:10 2015
WARNING: Your ClamAV installation is OUTDATED!
WARNING: Local version: 0.98.6 Recommended version: 0.98.7
DON'T PANIC! Read http://www.clamav.net/support/faq
main.cvd is up to date (version: 55, sigs: 2424225, f-level: 60, builder: neo)

I would like to upgrade ClamAV from 0.98.6 to 0.98.7 but I only have security/clamav-milter installed:

pkg info | grep clam:

Code: 
clamav-milter-0.98.7  Command line virus scanner written entirely in C

I have never installed ClamAV on its own, only the security/clamav-milter.

In /etc/rc.conf I have:

Code: 
clamav_clamd_enable="YES"
clamav_freshclam_enable="YES"
clamav_milter_enable="YES"

All are running:

sudo service clamav-clamd status:

Code: 
clamav_clamd is running as pid 65222

sudo service clamav-freshclam status:

Code: 
clamav_freshclam is running as pid 65239.

sudo service clamav-milter status

Code: 
clamav_milter is running as pid 62656.



My ports tree and all ports are up to date as of this posting.

So how do I upgrade my ClamAV to the latest version even though I don't have the security/clamav port installed? :confused:
 
I don't know really the difference between security/clamav and security/clamav-milter, But a look in the Makefile tells::

Code: 
MASTERDIR=  ${.CURDIR}/../clamav
PKGNAMESUFFIX=  -milter

CONFLICTS=  clamav-[0-9]*

.include "${MASTERDIR}/Makefile"
.

Cause there isn't much more in the Makefile, I guess there is no.
 
I think security/clamav is just a stand alone anti virus scanner whereas security/clamav-milter is used for email scanning.

What you posted for the Makefile didn't really make sense to me, can you expand on that please?

ClamAV was only updated on 4 May but I would have thought by now after updating all my ports I would be showing the latest version (but I'm not).
 
I was just having a look in the logs and the last entry with no warning was on 28 April:

Code: 
ClamAV update process started at Tue Apr 28 00:00:04 2015
main.cvd is up to date (version: 55, sigs: 2424225, f-level: 60, builder: neo)

bytecode.cld is up to date (version: 250, sigs: 42, f-level: 63, builder: neo)

Then on 29 April:

Code:

Feeling embarressed ( :oops: ) but after restarting clamav_clamd, clamav_freshclam and clamav_milter the log is now showing 0.98.7!

Code:

Thanks for the help!
 
I can imagine clamav and clamav-milter use the same "base-engine" or part of them and also the same warnings.
