You can't install clam from both an rpm and Julian's package as they use 
different paths. Pick one and stick with it.
Also get the perl module from the same place. If you use rpm's get the module 
from rpmforge also. Don't install from CPAN on an rpm system, you will 
eventually break something. Use something like cpanflute or cpan2rpm to make 
rpms of modules you can't find anywhere else.

Since you updated, you really should reboot to use the new kernel that you 
just downloaded.
