This worked, or at least it installed without complaining. I'll be watching it over the next several hours to see how it performs and start digging through my configs to see if they have been altered.
For the lists sake here's how I upgraded my 2.44 version of Spam Assassin on RedHat 9. Downloaded the .src.rpm file from the SA site [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# ls anaconda-ks.cfg install.log.syslog spamassassin-2.60-1.src.rpm install.log mail Ran the RPM rebuild: [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# rpmbuild --rebuild spamassassin*.src.rpm Found these files: Checking for unpackaged file(s): /usr/lib/rpm/check-files /var/tmp/spamassassin- root Wrote: /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/spamassassin-2.60-1.i386.rpm Wrote: /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/spamassassin-tools-2.60-1.i386.rpm Wrote: /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/perl-Mail-SpamAssassin-2.60-1.i386.rpm Installed them: [EMAIL PROTECTED] i386]# rpm -Uvh spam*.rpm perl-Mail*.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:perl-Mail-SpamAssassin ########################################### [33%] 2:spamassassin ########################################### [67%] Shutting down spamd: [ OK ] Starting spamd: [ OK ] 3:spamassassin-tools ###########################################[100%] [EMAIL PROTECTED] i386]# Many Thanks -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kris Deugau Sent: Wednesday, October 22, 2003 2:03 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [SAtalk] How to update old version of SpamAssassin Michael Emdy wrote: > I've been trying to upgrade my Spam Assassin install on RedHat 9 > unsuccessfully so far. > I get this when trying to use the RPM from the SA site. > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] src]# rpm -Uvh spamassassin* > warning: spamassassin-2.60-1.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID > e580b363 > error: Failed dependencies: > perl-Mail-SpamAssassin = 2.60-1 is needed by spamassassin-2.60-1 >perl-Mail-SpamAssassin = 2.60-1 is needed by spamassassin-tools-2.60-1 > [EMAIL PROTECTED] src]# rpm -Uvh perl* > file /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf from install of > perl-Mail-SpamAssas > sin-2.60-1 conflicts with file from package spamassassin-2.44-11.8.x > file /usr/share/man/man3/Mail::SpamAssassin.3pm.gz from install > of perl- > Mail-SpamAssassin-2.60-1 conflicts with file from package > spamassassin-2.44-11.8.x RedHat's provided SA package is an all-in-one package. Theo Van Dinter's packages have been split- as are many similar Perl programs. Use "rpm -Uvh spamassassin* perl-Mail-SpamAssassin*" instead, to install all three packages at once. I would strongly recommend you avoid this directly on RH9 anyway, as the packages you've got were built (IIRC) on RH7.3. They will NOT install and run cleanly on RH9. Instead, download the .src.rpm, and run "rpmbuild --rebuild spamassassin*.src.rpm" This should generate the three SA packages you have, but built for RH9's Perl. If you're having trouble with that, mail me offlist as it's not really a SpamAssassin problem any more. -kgd -- <erno> hm. I've lost a machine.. literally _lost_. it responds to ping, it works completely, I just can't figure out where in my apartment it is. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by OSDN developer relations Here's your chance to show off your extensive product knowledge We want to know what you know.
