My understanding is that local.cf is given so that the user can customize it to
his requirements. The Package Manager shouldn't worry about it.
Anyway, there's no harm even if it has been created. Just look at the changes in
between local.cf and local.cf.rpmnew and add it to local.cf if you like it.

As far as more stuff in local.cf is concerned, most of the rules are in
spamassassin's own rules database which keeps getting upgraded to fight the
smart spammers (they also understand spamassassin).
So not necessarily is it required to make your local.cf look huge.

And as Karanbir mentioned, you should instead be using the latest version of
software, at least for a spam solution.
