Had a similar question on another list (MailWatch for MailScanner).  I received the \
following reply:

============
"Centos 5.x and 6.x
Source installs the binary in /usr/local/bin/ so you might need a symlink for \
/usr/bin/spamassassin if you are using Mailwatch or you might need to edit your \
MailWatch conf.php for the location of SA." ============

I removed the existing spamassassin (rpm -e...) then installed from source.  It was \
pretty easy.  I edited the update routines which took more time than it should.  In \
hindsight, a couple of symlinks would have been smarter.

There was also a bug in the razor2 module.  It was a quick fix - just a typo in the \
module .  I'll see if I can dig it up tomorrow.  Other than that, it went pretty \
smoothly...

Subject: Upgrading to SA 3.4.0 on Ubuntu Precise (12.04)

Hi,

On my server, I'm running SpamAssassin 3.3.2 as provided as a package on Ubuntu \
Precise (12.04 LTS). I'd like to upgrade to SpamAssassin 3.4.0, but there is no \
upgrade available for Precise (12.04).  I could upgrade to Ubuntu Trusty (14.04), but \
I'm afraid to... Alternatively, I could install SpamAssassin from source (i.e. via \
CPAN), but then the locations of all the scripts will be dirrerent, I'll have to \
figure out the start/stop and update scripts, etcetera. So I was hoping that somebody \
already did this and packaged SA 3.4.0 for Ubuntu 12.04.  :-)  I haven't found \
anything, but does anyone know of a repository containing this? Alternatively, any \
other tips to easily get this up and running?

Thanks,

  - Michael
