Hi,
I have been using amavisd-new on CentOS for years now. What you need in order to resolve all (most) of the dependencies is to use the rpmforge repository. They seem to have pretty much all you need. Check this out: http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/ Another thing I find incredibly useful is a package called cpan2rpm, wich lets you install "regular" CPAN packagesas rpm based packages. http://sourceforge.net/projects/cpan2rpm/ I hardly ever ran into problems with this setup! Good luck, .peter On Thu, 16 Apr 2009, Terry Carmen wrote: > Does anybody have a good cheat sheet for installing > postfix/dovecot/amavis/spamassassin on Centos? > > Centos installs it's own version of perl, which works great until I go to add > the dependencies for amavis and spamassassin, at which point yum can't find > some of the prerequisites. > > Installing from source just makes it worse, because then there are two > incompatible perl installs and goofy mismatched search paths, and using CPAN > for the prerequisites takes forever because there doesn't seem to be a > complete list of *everything*, and then eventually CPN starts having problems > (probably some sort of conflict with the vendor perl install). > > Is there a script somewhere that lists *everything* that's required to get a > fully functioning system, using either yum or source packages? > > Thanks! > > Terry > > > > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Stay on top of everything new and different, both inside and > around Java (TM) technology - register by April 22, and save > $200 on the JavaOne (SM) conference, June 2-5, 2009, San Francisco. > 300 plus technical and hands-on sessions.
