Can't upgrade w/ RPM
Hi.
I'm running FC3 on an AMD64 platform for my mail server,
and I had last installed SpamAssassin 3.1.5. Well, I grabbed the
tarball for 3.1.7, and did a "rpmbuild -tb ..." of the tarball.
Worked fine.
Then I tried to upgrade via RPM:
# rpm -v -U /home/src/redhat/RPMS/x86_64/perl-Mail-SpamAssassin-3.1.7-1.x86_64.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
perl-Mail-SpamAssassin = 3.1.5-1 is needed by (installed) spamassassin-3.1.5-1.x86_64
any ideas why this is happening and what the fix is?

upgrade spamassassin and perl-Mail-SpamAssassin at the same time.

The packages are independent. spamassassin relies on
perl-Mail-SpamAssassin being the same version, so if you have them both
installed you need upgrade them at the same time. However, spamassassin
isn't required (ie: you just want the perl modules), so it really depends
on what you're doing.

You're right. Sorry, I spaced. I figured that the RPM container
actually contained several modules, like zaptel does (it also contains
zaptel-devices, zaptel-libs, etc).
Is there any reason to not have a single container contain multiple
packages? Since they do both need to be installed simultaneously?

You cant just upgrade one of the RPM's, you need to do them all at once.
spamassassin-3.1.5-1.x86_64 is using
perl-Mail-SpamAssassin-3.1.5-1.x86_64.rpm so you cant upgrade one
without the other.

Have you tried install/upgrade via yum?
