Today it has 77 updates, but in the process it wants to install spamassassin 3.1.3, which is back level by several releases. I run SA 3.1.7 and install from CPAN, and I don't want to go back to 3.1.3.
So which of kde packages insists on installing SA.
Don't know, but unless the rpm database knows about the install, it can only act on what it knows.
Question 2: Is the Software updater ever going to be less brain dead than it is now so that you can find out about these things, and over ride them when you know the package is already installed? Since they all rely on rpm on a rpm based distro, unless you allow it to work as designed, that answer is no. If CPAN installed it via rpm, then yes.
