You're using the wrong path. Move your SARE rules to
/etc/mail/spamassassin/ where they belong.
The SARE rulesets must be parsed BEFORE your local.cf.
Also, are you sure the ones in /usr/share/spamassassin are even being
parsed? According to the above, your system is using
"/var/lib/spamassassin/3.001003" instead of /usr/share/spamassassin.
That said, in general, don't monkey with anything but the "site rules
dir". Any other rule directories, such as the "default rules dir", are
for SA's own rules, and the SA installer feels perfectly free to rm -f *
on those directories.
Amavisd read the /usr/share/spamassassin dir which is probably why
--lint didn't work but reloading amavisd would work. Either way.....
I moved my /usr/share/spamassassin dir contents to
/etc/mail/spamassassin. I get the following errors when trying to
--lint.

The SUBJ_SOMEONE_WROTE rule that was posted a week ago or so on the list
isn't passing.

I still get the TextCat errors even if I comment out the
SUBJ_SOMEONE_WROTE rule.
