yum upgrade trouble

[Stephen Swaney]

Jan-peter,

We'll shortly be announcing a version of MailScanner with all related 
applications that is completely rpm based using our own yum 
repositories. MailScanner, SpamAssassin, Razor ClamAV, DCC and Bayes 
(using Postgres) will all be installed on CentOS 5 / RH 5 simply by running:

    yum -y groupinstall MailScannerGold

Best of all of the Perl Packages and all of their dependencies are 
separated from the system libraries. This allows MailScanner and the 
related applications as well as the system itself to be safely updated 
by simply running;

      yum -y update

Now more Perl conflicts since our schema eliminates all of the Perl 
related problems.

This will be a subscription based service with IP based secure keys 
required to access the repositories. Along with access to the 
repositories, subscribers will receive reduced support hourly rates.

It will be available for testing very shortly. What do you think?

Best regards,

Steve
