Maybe this is a bit offtopic, but why does everyone insist on using RPM/DEB whatever packages for everything? In my humble opinion, amavisd-new/spamassassin is much easier to handle when you compile own perl instance to /usr/local/perl. You can update it or your system as much as you want, and you know they wont break each other. I've never had any problems this way.
