Thanks for the reply.
mine too
_mandir %{_prefix}/share/man
even with /usr/lib/rpm/macros set back to
%_infodir %{_prefix}/info
%_mandir %{_prefix}/man
( I had added the share)
anyway I think the issue is that the MailScanner install.sh updated
ExtUtils::MakeMaker and the Spamassassin Makefile built by Makefile.PL
has the mandir as /usr/man I have no idea where $(INST_MAN1DIR) gets
set by Perl.
I am going to reinstall perl and see what happens. I did get it to
install and all appears to be working.
Now on to imaps or what ever it is called.
