No, just because the following files reside in the
/usr/share/doc subtree doesn't mean they're
documentation, they actually are spamassassin tools
which are useful and are *not* contained in the
standard spamassassin FC1 rpm:

/usr/share/doc/spamassassin-tools-2.63/tools
/usr/share/doc/spamassassin-tools-2.63/tools/README.speedtest
/usr/share/doc/spamassassin-tools-2.63/tools/check_bayes_db
/usr/share/doc/spamassassin-tools-2.63/tools/check_whitelist
/usr/share/doc/spamassassin-tools-2.63/tools/mboxsplit
/usr/share/doc/spamassassin-tools-2.63/tools/speedtest
/usr/share/doc/spamassassin-tools-2.63/tools/split_corpora
/usr/share/doc/spamassassin-tools-2.63/tools/test_extract
/usr/share/doc/spamassassin-tools-2.63/tools/translation_prep.pl
/usr/share/doc/spamassassin-tools-2.63/tools/triplets.pl

Yes it does work Phil, but the package doesn't contain
the tool within the spamassassin-tools package. You
can check the www.spamassassin.org site for the RPM
packages they release. The packagers of FC1 don't do
the right thing by neglecting to also package
perl-Mail-SpamAssassin and spamassassin-tools.

How can I find out the packager of the FC1
spamassassin RPM so I can ask him to also package the
other two RPM's?

Michael.
