To update SpamAssassin module from time to time from Git I am using
Puppet/Ansible that will put the code in the right places.
On simpler install I am using a Makefile like this one:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
install:
pod2man Esp.pm >
"/usr/share/man/man3p/Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Esp.3p"
perl -cw Esp.pm && podlint Esp.pm && cp Esp.{cf,pm,pre}
/etc/mail/spamassassin/
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Then I can run git pull from the directory and run make install to copy all
files to the correct places.
