I did this a while back, then lost the pending commit due to hosed laptop :( 
not making the same mistake again!

So this checkin is an implementation of what's described in comment 11 -- the
rules are no longer part of the main "make dist" tarball.  That is created (and
can pass its tests) with no rules.

: 92...; svn commit -m "bug 5752: MAJOR CHANGE FOR 3.3.0: we no longer install
the rules to /usr/share/spamassassin along with the code; admins must run
'sa-update' immediately after installing"

Committed revision 730843 ( https://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi?view=rev&rev=730843 ).


Here's what's left in /usr/share/spamassassin after make install --

: 39...; l /usr/local/share/spamassassin/
languages             sa-update-pubkey.txt  user_prefs.template

if you run spamassassin:


: 57...; spamassassin --lint
config: no rules were found!  Do you need to run 'sa-update'?


We now need to add a way to make a rules-dist tarball; ie. a .tgz containing
just the rules, in sa-update --install format.  or at least a way to generate
one of these at release time, and put it up on
www.apache.org/dist/spamassassin/ alongside the code tarball.
