MS not starting after SpamAssassin install

[Patricia Keena]

I think there's a problem with the latest rpm for spamassassin.  I upgraded
on Monday using the rpm and experienced many difficulties.  I then
downloaded the tar file and installed it using the instructions for perl.
This worked well

In the process of installing SpamAssassin, your copy of Perl got upgraded
too. The "old version hunting" that Perl does isn't quite enough for
SpamAssassin to work. So you'll need to re-install SpamAssassin. Then it
should go.
