Perl problems on Fedora 9

[Eli Wapniarski]

Try reinstalling  perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker and perl-devel from Fedora's update repository. That should fix things. I had the same problem on Fedora 10.

After you've done that make a back up of /etc/Mailsacnner. Then, rpm -Uvh --force mailscanner-4.76.24-3.noarch.rpm. Then run the install script. Everything should be OK.

I've also updated Perl (yum update perl*) but MS install script seems to remove that Perl-installation and try to install its own Perl-modules. Finally, I tried to install MS with nodeps but it didn't work.
