Should be easy, a portupgrade -R p5-Mail-SpamAssassin should do it. You MIGHT 'stop' every now and then if a dependency doesn't build right, just build it by hand. Upgrading from 3.1 to 3.2 will change the directory the default *.cf files are in (but the user cf's are still in /usr/local/etc/mail/spamassassin) >From the pkg-message: NOTE: FREEBSD users: If you are updating to 3.20 you will find that sa-update now places state files in /var/db/spamassassin and not the default /var/lib/spamassassin. This is to be consistant with Freebsd file directory conventions Portupgrade will ask (and timeout if you are not there) and ask if you want to run sa-update and sa-compile. It should also preserve the existing *.pre files and local.cf. Set a cronjob to run sa-update && sa-compile && restart spamd (or amavisd-new) Any problems, post a PR with send-pr or visit www.freebsd.org, click on support, click on add problem report. -- Michael Scheidell, CTO >|SECNAP Network Security Winner 2008 Network Products Guide Hot Companies FreeBSD SpamAssassin Ports maintainer _________________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned and certified safe by SpammerTrap(r).
