So I rechecked the files listed in this bugreport and yes, the checksums are the
same. However, they no longer list as viruses according to ClamAV. I checked my
logs and I'm assuming that a database update fixed a false positive (freshclam
updates the database every 2 hours on my machine, and, afaik, the virus
definition was added in the last day or two).
So it looks to me like it was simply a false positive.
