I like to be able to specify where stuff goes, so use the .tar For historic reasons I put SA in /usr/localbin (yes, just the 2 slashes) and my sources are in /packages/localsrc. I use Spamassassin from amavisd-new and add in to amavisd :- use lib '/usr/localbin/lib'; So :- % perl Makefile.PL % make % spamassassin -t < sample-nonspam.txt | more % spamassassin -t < sample-spam.txt | more % chmod -R a+r lib/ rules/ # seems to work as expected, so as root on mailhost :- # cd /usr/localbin # mkdir lib.2.42 rules.2.42 # cp -r /packages/localsrc/mail/Mail-SpamAssassin-2.42/lib/Mail lib.2.42 # cp /packages/localsrc/mail/Mail-SpamAssassin-2.42/rules/* rules.2.42 # cd lib.2.42 # ln -s ../path/to/Razor . # cd .. # rm lib rules # ln -s rules.2.42 rules # ln -s lib.2.42 lib # kill -HUP `cat /tmp/amavis/amavisd.pid` This is then easy to roll back to an earlier version :- # rm lib rules # ln -s rules.2.41 rules # ln -s lib.2.41 lib # kill -HUP `cat /tmp/amavis/amavisd.pid` Geoff UK-Human Genome Mapping Project-Resource Centre, Hinxton, Cambridge, CB10 1SB, UK Tel: +44 1223 494530 Fax: +44 1223 494512 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
