Why do you ask? Do you already have SA and/or CAV already installed and want to keep your configurations?


because I think that it would be "cleaner" uptade spamassassin package and clamav package via urpmi on mandriva, yum on redhat or apt on Debian... and so on. I was asking only if does really make sense to compile every update of those packages that are already avaiable as binary for every distribution.

thanks.


I'm speculating a bit here. On the toaster, SA and CAV run under control of simscan. I think that's the main reason.

Besides which, you'll get a bit of a performance boot compiling for your specific machine architecture over what you'll get from a binary distribution. In addition, there's less variance between distros this way.
