Hi,

Hi!

I'm soon to be building two new mailservers which will be running
Debian Etch, Qmail, Sophie and SpamAssassin, all plummed together
using Qmail-Scanner.
In the past, we've just installed SpamAssassin via apt-get, however

apt-get -> aptitude

when we need to upgrade it means looking for a backport. I'm thinking
of just installing from cpan instead on these new boxes, as the latest
version should always easily available, making upgrades slightly
easier. My only worry is that a cpan upgrade may go horribly wrong,
when in the past upgrading to a newer debian package has always been
faultless.

Has anyone got any experience with the pros and cons? Or am I
worrying too much about nothing?

Personally i would prefer the "Debian Way" if need be with backports.
Reason: It works ... ;-).

Cheers, Wilb.
