Perl could not find your SpamAssassin installation.
Strange, I just installed it.
You should fix this!

If you downloaded and installed install-Clam-0.88.7-SA-3.1.8.tar.gz and 
it installed properly, then you do have spamassassin installed.

You might want to run ./install.sh again from within the 
install-Clam-0.88.7-SA-3.1.8 directory and watch the output. If it fails

to cleanly finish the install, paste the errors here and someone will be

able to advise you what to do next.

If there are no errors, then try running
'spamassassin --lint' and see what you get. If no errors, then check 
that MailScanner is set to "Use SpamAssassin = yes" in MailScanner.conf.
