a) deinstall the CPAN modules currently loaded

Assuming (a) is successful, grab the distro RPM's for sendmail and procmail and install them using your favorite RPM tool. Ximian's Red Carpet is very nice for this.


For SA, set up an RPM build environment. That typically means creating a user for RPM building (RH-favored username is "buildmeister"), creating ~/.rpmmacros for that user with a suitable _topdir macro definition (says where the build will take place, instead of root's /usr/source/redhat), downloading the SA SRPM, and issuing "rpmbuild --rebuild xxxx.src.rpm" to recreate the binary RPM. Then su and install the binary RPM.

I have this in my buildmeister's .rpmmacros:

%_topdir /home/buildmeister
%packager Kenneth Porter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
%buildroot %{_topdir}/var/tmp


Under your topdir, create the directories RPMS, SRPMS, SPECS, and BUILD, so it looks like root's /usr/src/redhat tree.
