Hi,

I've packaged SpamCopURI, but these files clash with SpamAssassin files.

/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Mail/SpamAssassin/Conf.pm /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Mail/SpamAssassin/PerMsgStatus.pm

I assume that these normally replace the originally install SpamAssassin files. Is this correct, and if so should I look at adding SpamCopURI to my SpamAssassin package.

Regards,

Rob

Hi Rob, That's correct.

Not sure the answer. Will defer to more SA literate folks here....

Why not make a 'spamassassin-spamcop' package? Seems like the only really effective way of distributing this.

this is what I was thinking, however I quite like Dag Wieers package and much prefer to work with the repositories I use.

SpamCopURI is intended to overwrite these files. You can package these with SpamAssassin, but just be sure that its only version 2.63.

is there a reason why SpamCopURI isn't a patch to SpamAssassin?

I could have made a patch instead of just overwriting, but I thought it would be easier to install if I didn't patch since users would then have to locate the .pm files and directly patch them.

yes, hardly ideal, perhaps a patch in the tarball as an alternative method. Is there any chance the common code will get accepted into 2.64?

I am working on a more intelligent Makefile.PL that attempts to determine where you have installed SA and install over it.

Its not likely this will get incorporated into 2.64.

hmmm, I guess I can do it myself, but what I'd like to do is add a patch for the common files to the SpamAssassin rpm and then make a separate rpm with SpamCopURI.pm etc in.
