Some problems after update to SpamAssassin 3.3.1 and Perl 5.10.1
I just updated my SpamAssassin to 3.3.1. Maybe not the correct place to
mention it, but I find the
perl -MCPAN -e shell
not working very well. There was a message that the Perl version 5.8.6
was outdated, but I only saw it, because I was watching the output. With
the very big stream of output, it was something that is easily
overlooked. I had also to install a lot of modules by hand.
After the update to Perl 5.10.1 I get the message:
Terminal does not support AddHistory.
and cursor up for a previous given command does not work anymore. Very
annoying. :-{
But those are things that are annoying, but not more. But when I now
use:
sa-learn --dump magic
I get:
ERROR: Bayes dump returned an error, please re-run with -D for more information
so I used:
sa-learn -D --dump magic
which ends with:
apr 2 10:02:19.394 [7291] dbg: plugin: Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Bayes=HASH(0x8c63370) implements 'learner_is_scan_available', priority 0

apr 2 10:02:19.398 [7291] dbg: config: score set 1 chosen.

ERROR: Bayes dump returned an error, please re-run with -D for more information
So I would think my problem is that I need to install DB_File. But when
I do:
install DB_File
I get:
Parsing config.in...
Looks Good.

Looks good

So it looks like I am missing a file version.c. What is happening here
and what can I do about it?
Also with the script I use to run sa-update I created a log file. When I
do:
grep 'not installed\|warning' sa-update.log
I get:

The 'problem' is that you get an warning about it. Because I like to
check for errors, but do not want to get unnecessary messages I
installed it. Maybe sa should not give warnings if it does not need it?

Net::Ident is NOT required by SA, it is entirely optional
(unless you want to use --auth-ident option to spamd).
And you'd better NOT use it, unless you have full control
over each client's (spamc) computer and users there are
unprivileged.

Did this. Now I only have to install Razor2.

Take a look: http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/NetIdentPrototype
It seems that it can be forced to install, and while this error stays,
SA should be ok.
I have Apache.pm though, two different instances:
/usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0/DBI/ProfileDumper/Apache.pm
/usr/share/perl/5.10.0/CGI/Apache.pm
I don't know if the Apache.pm is the key to keep Ident happy, or not.
You can try and install CGI::Apache and/or DBI::ProfileDumper::Apache
(I have those), maybe then...
Or just force install Net::Ident. According to that Apache wikipage
Net::Ident is required by SA.

It looks like it does not pose a problem. Is it an important module, or

It has worked sometimes, and never failed. But I have not done it too often.
Installing from CPAN can be pain.

Where already installed with Bundle::CPAN.
My problem with Net::Ident did not go away.

No, I downloaded the sources and made Perl from source. The system has a

managed version.

That was the problem and I already did this and sa-learn works again.

You instanlled perl from cpan, and propably removed the earlier, package
managed version of perl?
Now you need to install ALL perl packages that are missing and that were
installed by your OS package manager earlier.
DB_File propably needs some kind of "dev"-package for Berkeley DB (it
needs db.h and the libraries).
What comes to SpamAssassin, you probably need to look out all
prerequisities, and reinstall them thru CPAN, if not with your package
manager.
In CPAN, you might want to try at least
install Bundle::CPAN
and if that does not install YAML and LWPm then
install YAML
install LWP
It usually is bad practise to install perl thru CPAN and bypassing own
package management. You may now be dependent on CPAN on all your Perl
stuff. I have been there, done that. Now trying to stick with distro
Perl, and upgrade distro, if Perl gets old.
