Yum and Spamassassin

[Michael Bartlett <mi...@gmail.com>]

Not sure if here or Yum list is right place...

I was trying to figure out why I don't have sa-update and this seemed to
answer the question:

Reading repository metadata in from local files
Installed Packages
Name   : spamassassin
Arch   : i386
Version: 3.0.6
Release: 1.fc4
Size   : 1.8 M
Repo   : installed

I can't believe the yum package is so out of date, am I missing something?

The RPMforge project at rpmforge.net has up-to-date versions of
spamassassin in a yum repository for most RedHat-derived operating
systems including Fedora Core.  I don't use FC4 so I don't know
specifically about that one, but it's pretty likely.

I don't think either is really appropriate.

Yup.  3.0 has no sa-update, it's a 3.1 addition.

You're running Fedora Core 4 (hey, me too,) which is generally out of date at
this point.  I'd suggest ditching their package, grabbing the SA tarball, and
building your own 3.1.x.

FC4 itself is dead. There are no updates for it.
