{MCP?} Re: CentOS - Removed perl-IO due to bug in updating via 'yum'

[Paul Simpkin]

Thanks, I just tried this:

ERROR: You must upgrade your perl IO module to at least 
reinstall the perl IO moudle (perl-IO) from CPAN (http://search.cpan.org) 

wget http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/G/GB/GBARR/IO-1.2301.tar.gz
tar xvfz IO-1.2301.tar.gz
cd IO-1.2301
perl Makefile.PL
make test
make install


And it worked....

Was that bad? 


Paul

Sorry panic moment! :(

you can try this one;
http://yum.vanderkooij.org/rpm2html/el5-i386/perl-IO-1.2301-2.HvdK.noarch.html

Or just enable Hugo's repo and yum install mailscanner.wrapper
