I installed perl-spamassassin first using yast and then spamassassin using yast. The spamassassin rpm failed to installed but when i do a rpm -qa spamassassin it shows both 3.1 and 3.2 installed. I look in yast and it shows 3.2 only. I look in /etc/mail/spamassassin and all the 3.1 files are still there along with 3.2pre file. Should i uninstall and then reinstall and if i do this, what will happen to all the existing rules and what-not?
