Kai,

Sorry, I misread your message.  (This is what happens when you start
e-mailing while drinking the first cup of coffee of the morning.)

It would be nice if Julian extracted the list of dependencies out of
install.sh into a file and provided scripts to create a
Bundle::MailScanner file for the CPAN users (and for ovid) and a
meta-RPM from it.  (The meta-RPM would just be a list of Requires, and
would let you upgrade MailScanner from a yum/apt repository using
something like "yum upgrade mailscanner-meta".)
