As described in DLA-437-1, clamav has been updated to the most recent upstream version, 0.99. Due to a soname change in libclamav, packages depending on libclamav needed to be recompiled to work with the new libclamav7. At the time DLA-437-1 was sent, updated dansguardian packages were not available.
An update to dansguardian has now been uploaded and packages should be available shortly. The recommendation in DLA-437-1 not to upgrade clamav if using it with dansguardian in no longer applicable.
