Well yes I did. But I just took a closer look - I must have missed these the first time round:

[20811] dbg: rules: running meta tests; score so far=-0.812 [20811] dbg: rules: meta test DIGEST_MULTIPLE has undefined dependency 'DCC_CHECK'
[20811] dbg: rules: meta test SARE_RD_SAFE has undefined dependency 'SARE_RD_SAFE_MKSHRT'
[20811] dbg: rules: meta test SARE_RD_SAFE has undefined dependency 'SARE_RD_SAFE_GT'
[20811] dbg: rules: meta test SARE_RD_SAFE has undefined dependency 'SARE_RD_SAFE_TINY'
[20811] dbg: rules: meta test SARE_HEAD_SUBJ_RAND has undefined dependency 'SARE_XMAIL_SUSP2'
[20811] dbg: rules: meta test SARE_HEAD_SUBJ_RAND has undefined dependency 'SARE_HEAD_XAUTH_WARN'
[20811] dbg: rules: meta test SARE_HEAD_SUBJ_RAND has undefined dependency 'X_AUTH_WARN_FAKED'
[20811] dbg: rules: compiled meta tests

Is this the source of the problem? What do I need to do to fix it?

I'm a little surprised as this is an out-of-the-box implementation and I thought that after the upgrade, running sa-update would simple download the relevant sare rulesets (which it did) and I would be up and running...

Thanks for your help so far.

Much appreciated...
