Hi Bookworm,
There isn't a problem. This is exactly how it is designed to work.
SA has an inbuilt order of checking for files, RTFM:
http://spamassassin.apache.org/full/3.1.x/dist/doc/spamassassin.html#configuration

When I build SpamAssassin using the CPAN method, it installs the test
files (20_anti_ratware.cf and similar) in /usr/share/spamassassin.
However, sa-update shoves updates into
/var/lib/spamassassin/3.001005/updates_spamassassin_org (with extra crap
in /var/lib/spamassassin/3.001005/ )
I suspect that one or the other behavior is actually wrong. Either the
CPAN method has a bad configuration script, or the sa-update has never
been matched to the configure script.
Either way, can anyone give me a suggestion on the best way to deal with
this issue? (Besides the fact that the CPAN should probably use the
same default site rules directory as sa-update?)
