After upgrading Mail-ClamAV: ClamAV Perl module not found, did you install it?

Mon Feb 19 20:49:26 CET 2007

I had the same problem upgrading from 0.88.7. I had to revert back to
the old version. I have not had a chance to try to fix it yet. Maybe
this will help:

MailScanner --version

Hello,

A little more to go on...

First, MailScanner's running as root, so it's definitely not a
permissions problem.

I went ahead and put a "require Mail::ClamAV" at the top of my
/usr/sbin/MailScanner to see what would happen, and I got the following.
Looks like the Perl module can't find libclamav.so.1 (installed under
/usr/local/lib which I added to ld.so.conf). Even with /usr/local/lib in
ld.so.conf, I still get:

         MailScanner:       Had problems bootstrapping Inline module
'Mail::ClamAV'

Can't load
'/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/Mail/ClamAV
/ClamAV.so'
for module Mail::ClamAV: libclamav.so.1: cannot open shared object file:
No such file or directory at
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 229.

 at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/Mail/ClamAV.pm
line 188
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/Mail/ClamAV.pm
line 532.
Compilation failed in require at /usr/sbin/MailScanner line 38.

Any thoughts from anyone on how to tell the Perl module where
libclamav.so.1 is?

Thanks,
keith
