Removed perl-Math-BigInt now Mailscanner won't start
because the forced modules probably overwrote the original built-in version, so that after removal nothing was left.
Cross my fingers and hope I won't run into any perl problems, try reinstalling perl which doesn't sound easy or wait for 5.3 to come out cause its going to fix everything. :-)
Should not be difficult. Shutdown all programs that are based on Perl and remove the MailScanner rpm and then Perl (and all Perl modules) with rpm. Then reinstall Perl with yum. Make a note of all modules you had installed for other programs, so you can reinstall them. (Just force-installing Perl over the existing setup may also cure it, but it's not really clean.) Then use Hugo's repo.
You may run into this problem again, when the system Perl gets updated which may happen with 5.3. There was already a Perl upgrade late last year.
