Starting amavisd. Error in config file "/usr/local/etc/amavisd.conf": Global symbol "$nanny_details_level" requires explicit package name at /usr/local/etc/amavisd.conf line 64. >A command 'amavisd-nanny -h' shows the legend.

This is just a standard Perl module install procedure >(perl Makefile.PL; make; make test; make install; sa-update). I'll try that. is sa 3.3 available as a tarball somewhere? compiled the required apr-svn and svn 1.4 but: svn checkout http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/spamassassin/trunk spamassassin-trunk /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/lib/libkrb5.so: Undefined symbol "initialize_asn1_error_table_r" ... so I'm asking around about that apparently Google-common problem >Also, switch Bayes to MySQL if you still have it in a bdb database. yes, it's bdb.
