I'm using the clamav/clamd packages and I think clamav shouldn't
strictly depend on the same clamav-db version.
My idea is that clamav should only require clamav-db with no explicit version.
During the install the newest clamav-db will be downloaded and during
updates this will prevent yum from update the package which, in the
worst case, could even replace a newer virus db fetched by freshclam.
Yum is not the right tool to update the virus database, freshclam
should be used instead.
For reference:

My suggestion is to modify the spec file:
-Requires: clamav-db = %{version}-%{release}
+Requires: clamav-db
Thank you for your attention.
