<DIV><FONT size=2>I have struggled to install MailScanner on Fedora
11</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>The switch of rpms within Fedora to i586 means that the
install.sh script picks up the default architecture (on my machine) as being
i586.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>This means that at the end of the script it attempts to
install tnef-1.4.5.i586.rpm, but the one within the MailScanner tarball is
tnef-1.4.5.i386.rpm. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I could have either altered the install.sh script or just have
installed tnef-1.4.5.i386.rpm manually, but found an rpm from</FONT></DIV>

added this instead to satisfy the rpm installation </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I now have MailScanner installed and it starts OK without any
errors - but have not yet had time to try it out</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>However, one of the perl modules just will not compile
correctly </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>perl-IO-1.2301-4.src.rpm</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>no matter what I do</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>But - does this matter if MailScanner installs OK and starts
OK ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I have read on the Fedora website that it can be built if the
Buildarch parameter is deleted or commented out - but how do I do
that?</FONT></DIV>
