[opensuse] amavisd-upgrade
Does anyone know of a repo for amavisd-new for older SUSE versions? I'm not having much luck building the srpm from Anders' site on 9.2 - it needs sendmail to be installed, and the only 9.2 box I have access to is the server I want to upgrade it on.

You really don't need an rpm to upgrade amavisd-new. There are only a few files that make the entire amavisd-new package, and those are easily copied by hand. The bigger part of the preparation is the check that all neccessary requirements are met (neccessary perl modules and utilities, the docs explain very nicely what installation requirements amavisd-new has. Most of it can be installed through the CPAN shell. Sandy -- List replies only please!

Sandy, thanks. I know I cand do it through CPAN (I'm tempted), but as it stands I'm handing this box over to someone who's not so experienced with linux, and I want to avoid a situation where a YOU updated messes it up. Also, I'd like to keep the rpm database intact, for the same reason.

In that case I would give up on upgrading Amavisd-new to a recent version. There are too many dependencies on external recent packages. Better work with what you have. Maybe it would be a good idea to update the entire server to a supported version? Sandy -- List replies only please!

Yes, that is what I have. I'd like to get support for amongst other things ripole, which this version doesn't seem to know about. Thanks Hans -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
