Are you now saying mimedefang uses both /var/lib/spamassassin and
/usr/share/spamassassin? If mimedefang only uses /usr/share/spamassassin,
what's the point in putting the updates in /var/lib/spamassassin unless
you want to run spamassassin from procmail?
See the FAQ here:
<http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/RuleUpdates>
Traditionally /usr is treated as read-only (it might be mounted that way)
and /var is used for stuff that changes from day to day (such as anti-virus
and anti-spam data files). An SA update might only affect a few rules
within a file in the main rules directory, and you wouldn't want it
overwriting that file and eliminating all the rules that weren't updated.
