Cannot upgrade spamassassin-3.1.8-1.i386 to spamassassin-3.2.4-1.i386 in RHEL 4
Hi guys,
This is my first email to this mailing list. I've been trying to
update spamassassin from spamassassin-3.1.8-1.i386 to
spamassassin-3.2.4-1.i386 for my mail server since 3 days ago. The
operating system is RHEL 4. When I run the rpm command:
rpm -Uvh --force perl-Mail-SpamAssassin-3.2.4-1.i386.rpm
spamassassin-3.2.4-1.i386.rpm
I got a message:
error: Failed dependencies:
perl(HTML::Parser) >= 3.43 is needed by
perl-Mail-SpamAssassin-3.2.4-1.i386
perl(Archive::Tar) >= 1.23 is needed by spamassassin-3.2.4-1.i386
perl(IO::Zlib) >= 1.04 is needed by spamassassin-3.2.4-1.i386
I checked the version of the dependencies with the "perl -MCPAN -e
shell" command yet they all fit the requirement:

I'd rpmbuild-ed the source file ( Mail-SpamAssassin-3.2.4.tar.gz) and
upgraded those dependencies about 3 days ago and since that time I
have never restarted the mail server. What was I missing here? Thank
you for your help.

check the version of perl module which is installed in your system, and
figured out which version is required for spamassassin 3.2.4....
i think this is version issue, and post the latest error what you are
getting

Well, I do get the description of those perl module. To reinstall
spamassassin from the source, frankly, would be the last option since
the mail server is a productive one. I'm trying to make the
installation as simple as possible with the rpm file so I'll only have
to invoke the "rpm -Uvh" command, instead of manually uninstall and
reinstall spamassassin. By the way, thank you for your reply. :)

FWIW you might also consider adding RPMForge/DAG as a yum or apt source
so you don't have to go through the hassle of downloading a package only
to find it needs another package which needs three more packages....
I've been using RPMForge with yum on several CentOS4 machines and a
CentOS3 machine for quite a while now. The only downside is that you
may not want to install certain packages from them. I've yet to have
any problems, but I don't blindly install anything necessary from their
repo. Since CentOS is a source-rebuild of RHEL, the binary packages
should work fine.

Hi Kris,
Thank-you for the advice. I downloaded those 3 packages from
http://dag.wieers.com, rebuilt, and installed them for my distro. Now
I can upgrade my spamassassin-3.2.4-1. Many thanx to all of you guys.
GBU.

Try "rpm -q perl-HTML-Parser" or "rpm -q 'perl(HTML::Parser)'". You'll
either get nothing, or a version number less than SA requires. When
installing from packages, don't assume the package manager knows about
ANYTHING you've done elsewhere (eg CPAN).
If you install Perl modules from source/CPAN, install all third-party
Perl tools and utilities from source or CPAN.
If you install Perl modules via the system's package system, you can
usually get along fine with source/CPAN installs of things like SA
(unless it "requires" a newer version of something - rare, but it
happens sometimes). It does NOT, as you're seeing, work very well the
other way around.
Personally, I prefer using the package system as it keeps all of the
software installation in one place.
