I want to know where it is putting things, are binaries going to same place as always have /usr/local/sbin..there are now a bunch of perl lib
I agree the documentation is extremely poor. btw they are not binaries, they are perl scripts :)
come on if you are going to sieze control of software thats well used, well known and understood, and then basically make it your own, how about some good DOCUMENTATION and keep it simple - not this clusterfuck thats in that tar.gz file. (seems you did this from 2.13 perhaps that why we never upgraded to it)
whoah there, pull the reigns and slow up... They didn't seize anything, Mark has spent a lot of years developing amavisd, his latest version if it makes you happy still runs perfectly fine, but Mark decided to step down, he wasnt pushed, he'd done enough, basically, you could say he retired.
perusing other files it looks more like its written for debian, hey, no
Don't use debian, we're Slackware, I'm not sure where you'd get this idea from, perhaps the docker files that populate the package's root, granted, they should be in contrib.
