EXIM & Amavis article broke Perl (CPAN)

[Anonymous]

I followed the instructions of the newest article on Exim and Amavis with antivirus and spam filters, and I am guessing the new Perl version recommended by the writer broke my Perl..

All I get now, when I try to run CPAN (which is another step in the same article) I get:

cpan> install Mail::SpamAssassin
dyld: perl Undefined symbols:
_Perl_safefree
_Perl_safemalloc
_Perl_saferealloc
_Perl_sv_2pv
_perl_call_sv
_perl_eval_sv
_perl_get_sv
Trace/BPT trap

.. Which is quite interesting. I ran CPAN a couple of days ago, so I know it was working prior to me installing the new version.

Anyone??

.. Ok, I removed /Library/Perl entirely and also the “PerlBackup” which the installer created, then I reinstalled from the Pkg. Still the same error though..

Even tried to reboot, as if it would help 😥

I had to remove the old libperl.dylib from [b:e897209e37]/System/Library/Perl/darwin/CORE[/b:e897209e37] and _then_ reinstall Perl 5.8.

Thanks anyways..
