Thank you. I'm currently building 0.99.3 for all platforms and it should
become available in 3-4 hours.

Yes. As this is a security issue that could potentially be exploited
I'll push it out for anyone with a purchase (expired or ongoing). We do
have two methods for that: Backdating the release date of the PKG in
NewLink and/or via YUM Update. I'll choose the YUM Update for this one,
as Clam AV is already in the AV-SPAM YUM repository and the PKG only
provides the means to install this AV-SPAM dependency anyway.

So you will get it during the next YUM update.
