SA-Update Problem

[Gregory Wong]

I am running version 3.1.0. I have been weary to upgrade to the latest because I've read that there are bugs in SA that allows all mail through even if its spam.

Well, you're definitely not missing IO::File.. It was running in that module
when then error occurred. It's got to be present to be running ;)

Anyway, CPAN should work for IO::File, ie: this command line should work:
perl -MCPAN -e 'install IO::File'

However, your problem could be one of two problems. Either your IO::File is
corrupted or your SpamAssassin is old and buggy..

Are you by chance running a fairly old SpamAssassin (ie: pre 3.2.0?)

Some possibly related bugs:

Daryl O'Shea implies that this exact error message is a known issue in SA pre 3.1.0.
