Hi,

I am running on Ubuntu 20.4 and got the following error after updating
packages.

>Undefined subroutine &Scalar::Util::tainted called at /usr/share/perl5/Mail/SpamAssassin/Message.pm line 208.

I have installed Scalar::Util via cpanm and apt but this message still comes
up.

--- Comment #1 from Bill Cole <bi...@apache.org> ---
Cannot reproduce. I have confirmed that latest Scalar::Util (1.63) DOES still
include the 'tainted' function, as does every version in any supported version
of Perl. 

If you are actually using SpamAssassin v3.4.4 as this report indicates, your
first step should be to upgrade SA to 4.0.0, as 3.x is obsolete and
unsupported. If you are using the Ubuntu (Debian) package, you may be able to
get support from the maintainer of that package. 

My best guess, given limited information, is that your Perl installation is
damaged or that you have more than one Perl tree installed and SA is using the
wrong one. 

You  may also find it useful to discuss this on the SpamAssassin Users list,
where you may be able to find someone who has also run in to this problem,
whatever it might be, and knows what part of your system is actually broken.
