I am the maintainer for the FreeBsd SA port and about to
release patches 
that change the default state directory from
/var/lib/spamassassin to 
/usr/local/lib/spamassassin
This makes it more consistent with FBSD's directory
structure (they 
don't use /var/lib for anything).

The reason its important, is if you do use something like
'sa-update 
--updatedir /usr/local/share/spamassassin  or
../etc/mail/spamassassin, 
THREE sets of plugins are loaded:

#1, custom: /usr/local/etc/mail/spamassassin
#2, site: /usr/local/share/spamassassin
#3, the updates.

if you apply this update patch, and run sa-update, then
restart spamd or 
amavisd-new, only TWO sets of plugins will be loaded.

If you update, or deinstall/reinstall it will erase any old

/var/lib/spamassassin directory and its contents.

Minor issues also including checking minimum versions of
certain 
utilities based on problems or security issues, including
forcing gnupg1 
to at least 1.47.

If anyone would like a tarball of these (pre-release) ports
file, you 
can download it here (for the next week, or until the
official ports 
collection is updated)
I will be taking any (helpful) suggestions till Friday when
I will send 
this to ports for updates.

w.secnap.com/downloads/saport.tgz.
Instructions for install, just unzip it into 
/usr/ports/mail/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin.

(offer void where prohibited or taxed, your mileage may
vary, use at one 
risk)
