I see that it's annoying, but as the point of that banner is to warn you that you need to upgrade the clamav engine in order to catch new viruses in the new cvd files, there is not much point permanently suppressing it. It seems like a disservice to turn off a purposeful warning, to me. At any rate, the new clamav will be going in today, so hopefully it will hit the backports.org mirror later today.
