(bear with me, I'm a little new to this) The other problem package I see is SpamAssassin and ClamAV, with their dependencies. Now, I suppose I could take a really bizarre route and install all the dependency libraries under our special directory /opt/dirname-1.0 - but that could get really messy. Suggestions/feedback welcomed. Thanks.
