How did you determine that it was using /usr/share/spamassassin & not
/var/lib/spamassassin/3.001005/?

I just enabled sa-update and ran it, and presto, I'm on 3.1.7 and have
the /var/lib/... tree all created.  But nothing in /var/log/mail (or
elsewhere) said what directory it's using.

spamassassin --lint -D uses the approprite (updated) folder, but of
course, it bypasses MailScanner...
