I've tried multiple ways, CPAN and from source, to install this and I constantly get the errors shown here http://pastebin.com/drEmcSc5 I need to get this installed so I can interface SpamAssassin with ClamAV. Any help or advice would be appreciated. This is being installed on a Ubuntu 14.04 LTS box. Here, your problem i that the modules fail testing, and that subsequently don't install due to failing testing. The reason for it is probable either: a) Your system ClamAV is no longer compatible with the ClamAV module b) The ClamAV module is no longer compatible with some dependency c) The ClamAV module is no longer compatible with perl Unfortunately, all of these mean the solution to your problem will be specific to the module, not a general problem with Perl Module installation. 1. The ClamAV module hasn't seen maintenance since 2009. 2. However, the good news is there are some passes on recent perls ( http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=File-Scan-ClamAV+1.91 ), indicating its more likely to be a ClamAV/Dependency issue. 3. There are however, 7 open bugs https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/Display.html?Name=File-Scan-ClamAV 4. This bug suggests indeed, that the ClamAV API has been changed, and the module has not been updated to adjust https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=54205 5. .... which suggests you may want to try installing an older version of ClamAV such as ClamAV-0.93 and see if that helps -- Kent KENTNL - https://metacpan.org/author/KENTNLThanks Kent, someone on the ClamAV mailing list sent me a list of changes to be made in the 't' folder to the tests and to the 'mkconf.pl' file there. After that it installed flawlessly. Thank you for your reply Chris
Can you post those changes or a link to the mailing list? It might be wise for someone to update the module....
