AW: SV: Perl problems on Fedora 9 SOLVED

[Oliver Falk]

Note:
I've tried to bug Fedota Perl packager to update a few modules and was successfull!
So, I wonder which packages need to be replaced by the MS install.sh!?
There was also some thread about why not package it within the distribution..
Well, if enough of you run Fedora... I can imagine a SIG. I can also imagine beeing the primary packager... If you want.
And finally. I can also imagine doing this for RHEL, using EPEL...

It's just a "Do you want this?"

Are there other Fedora packagers (or some who want to become one) who are willing to help? Because fom time to time I tend to enjoy some holiday :-)

Or - as an old RPM packager - shall I just try to fix broken specs and the install.sh?

Keep me posted...

Hi, I followed your suggestions and simply installed the missed perl-modules (and the perl-Pod-Simple) with yum. Now the install-script works fine.

Thanx guys

Jonas

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.
