-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2010-18718 2010-12-09 21:27:37 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : spambayes Product : Fedora 14 Version : 1.1 Release : 0.2.a6.fc14 URL : http://spambayes.sourceforge.net Summary : Bayesian anti-spam filter Description : SpamBayes will attempt to classify incoming email messages as 'spam', 'ham' (good, non-spam email) or 'unsure'. This means you can have spam or unsure messages automatically filed away in a different mail folder, where it won't interrupt your email reading. First SpamBayes must be trained by each user to identify spam and ham. Essentially, you show SpamBayes a pile of email that you like (ham) and a pile you don't like (spam). SpamBayes will then analyze the piles for clues as to what makes the spam and ham different. For example; different words, differences in the mailer headers and content style. The system then uses these clues to examine new messages. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: That is a big update which includes a lot of fixes and other changes, additions. Sadly spambayes was never updated in Fedora within the last 3 years. So please backup your data (if important), read the Changelog included in the RPM and test it. If you're one of the bsddb users: "The bsddb solution is problematic, in that users' databases sometimes get corrupted, but we don't know what causes that." "New backends, particularly ZODB/ZEO, have been added, and the SQL backends improved." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Fri Dec 10 2010 Paul Howarth <[email protected]> - 1.1-0.2.a6 - Add exec permission for modules that can be run directly - Remove references to unused patch - Add missing dependency on python-lockfile (#661942) * Sun Sep 12 2010 Thomas Janssen <[email protected]> 1.1-0.1.a6 - update to 1.1a6 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #652113 - [abrt] spambayes-1.0.4-10.fc14: __init__.py:364:hashopen:DBNoSuchFileError: (2, 'No such file or directory') https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=652113 [ 2 ] Bug #661942 - [abrt] spambayes-1.1-0.1.a6.fc14: safepickle.py:7:<module>:ImportError: No module named lockfile https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=661942 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
