Taking a view into perl packages (classes) needed by spamassassin (qmail-toaster package), I saw that there are a script that install the classes using CPAN. I discovered that CPAN installed packages goes into a diferent directory that distro ones. The workaround (solution) I found is rename this directory and install the needed packages manually from rpmforge repository. All appears to be working now. The steps have been: 1) Rename /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl. 2) Update perl packages. 3) Install the needed clases as packages (from rpmforge) instead from CPAN. 4) Reinstall packages broken because they install manually any propietary perl classes into the system (vmware-server for example). Thanks to all for the help. Regards El Lun, 25 de Agosto de 2008, 6:00, Eric Shubert escribió: > Eric Shubert wrote: >> Here's a list of perl modules on an up-to-date COS5.2 toaster.
