I think that the reason is due to the split of the package.
Before the split, I had never compiled the rules, so that sa-compile
has never been run. After the split, sa-compile has automatically
been installed as recommended by spamassassin, and sa-compile is run
unconditionally in the post-installation script.

The problem was probably due to my environment variable

  PERL_MM_OPT=INSTALL_BASE=/home/vlefevre/perl5

which is needed for users who install Perl packages in their home
directory. Such a configuration can automatically added by cpan.

So, various other users may be affected...
