This is likely a duplicate of LP: #2046581.

Hi Janis,

Where did you get clamav-1.0.4.linux.x86_64.deb from and how did you install it?

It seems you have a focal installation, where the latest clamav version is 0.103.9+dfsg-0ubuntu0.20.04.1.

Are you using a non-Ubuntu package for clamav ( suppose it is the upstream one)? If so, that is not a supported use case and you should get support with the package provider (e.g., upstream).

With that said, I wonder if we should get rid of this message in Ubuntu ("Your ClamAV installation is OUTDATED!") since it does not seem to be true from an Ubuntu perspective.
