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 > > > > > > HTH > > > N.Emile... > > > > The Fedora Spamassassin RPMs do the right thing, > in my opinion.

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. Find local movie times and trailers on Yahoo!
