           Summary: Installation should trigger update to run
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: Packaging: RPM
        AssignedTo: dev@spamassassin.apache.org
        ReportedBy: marc@perkel.com


I would like to suggest that as part of the initial install of SA that at the
end it automatically does an update so that you actually are installing the
latest and greatest. That way if there were improvements since the official
release those improvement are installed as well.

I think this is a good idea. But we must take into account that there may not 
be an internet connection configured at package install time (e.g. when 
installing from cd). Another thing would be mass-installations from images: you 
want to update at first usage and not at image creation time.

So I propose to create a "firstrun" script which is run by the init script if 
some conditions are met (e.g. no update installed or some file touched).

Personally, I would oppose doing it automatically. 

That said, I do think the install should end with some text recommending running
sa-update.
