Can't upgrade w/ RPM
Hi. I'm running FC3 on an AMD64 platform for my mail server, and I had last installed SpamAssassin 3.1.5. Well, I grabbed the tarball for 3.1.7, and did a rpmbuild -tb ... of the tarball. Worked fine. Then I tried to upgrade via RPM: # rpm -v -U /home/src/redhat/RPMS/x86_64/perl-Mail-SpamAssassin-3.1.7-1.x86_64.rpm error: Failed dependencies: perl-Mail-SpamAssassin = 3.1.5-1 is needed by (installed) spamassassin-3.1.5-1.x86_64 any ideas why this is happening and what the fix is? -Philip

Sorry, I spaced. I figured that the RPM container actually contained several modules, like zaptel does (it also contains zaptel-devices, zaptel-libs, etc). Is there any reason to not have a single container contain multiple packages? Since they do both need to be installed simultaneously? -Philip

The packages are independent. spamassassin relies on perl-Mail-SpamAssassin being the same version, so if you have them both installed you need upgrade them at the same time. However, spamassassin isn't required (ie: you just want the perl modules), so it really depends on what you're doing. -- Randomly Selected Tagline: It is not the strongest of the species that survives, not the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.- Charles Darwin pgpQ9MYLwlDx5.pgp Description: PGP signature
