spamassassin vs. psa-spamassassin

[hegebutt]

What's the difference between spamassassin and psa-spamassassin?

[scott]

psa-spamassassin is just an interface on PSA for spamassassin.

[hegebutt]

I have psa-spamassassin 7.5.4 installed, and spamassassin 2.63 installed. When I check updates, I see spamassassin 3.1.0 is available. But when I try to update spamassassin, it says "conflict between spamassassin and psa-spamassassin."

Any ideas why?

PSA-Spammassassin conflicts with ART Spamassassin:

what should I do to resolve this?

[scott]

right, PSA 7.5.3 is not compatible with spamassassin 3.0, you need to install psa 7.5.4

Hello Scott

When I try to install 7.5.4, I get this:

(I selected 7.5.4 update and also checked spamassassin for update/install)

I can't install Spamassassin version for 7.5.4 alone, the check in 7.5.4 base packages wont go away.
I can't update 7.5.3 because of mentioned conflict.

It seems I am in a deadlock?

[scott]

Try installing/upgrading PSA through yum instead, that should automatically resolve all those issues for you.

[manarak]

did that already (
it failed too

[tabacco]

Yeah, I'm seeing that too.

psa-spamassassin 7.5.4 is install, but installing SA 3.1.0 fails with a conflict against psa-spamassassin

[manarak]

heeeeelp!

this prevents me from upgrading to PSA 7.5.4!

[manarak]

what way to go? should I uninstall ART's SA?

how would I do this?

[hegebutt]

I too already have psa 7.5.4 installed and I'm getting the conflict with spamassassin.

[tabacco]

Here's some friendly debug output from Yum:

I get the same thing when I debug during the update, even though I have psa 7.5.4 installed as well as psa-spamassassin 7.5.4.

[manarak]

so - what should we do to circumvent the problem?
