Bingo
perl -e "for (@ARGV) { print $_, qq(\t), 1 * $_, qq(\n); }" 1 1.2 1.2_3
1 1
1.2 1.2
1.2_3 1.2
Note the last... 1.2_3 is numified as 1.2

RE: Net::DNS problem?
According to Camel book 2nd edition page 39,
"The underscore only works within literal numbers specified in your
program, not for strings functioning as numbers or data read from
somewhere else."
I suspect that when Perl processes rule files, the scores are not
processed like "literal numbers".

There is a fair thtread about it over on the dev list. The result seems to be benign, other than the annoying warning message. Loren
Re: Net::DNS problem?
Hmmm, I wonder why it complained with 0.49_03 and was ok when I left 0.49
only.

But 0.49_03 IS numeric. Perl allows embedded _'s in numeric literals.
Even if you put it in quotes - "0.49_03" - it's STILL numeric.

I decided to downgrade it by downloading TAR. Installed prerequisites and the module itself just fine. Running spamassassin --lint and see the complaint about version of it is not numeric (0.49_03), therefore it can not compare 2 versions Argument "0.49_03" isn't numeric in numeric lt (<) at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6/Mail/SpamAssassin/Dns.pm line 1230 Here is the line: $Net::DNS::VERSION < 0.34 I overwrote $Net::DNS::VERSION with 0.49 - so does not complain anymore :-))) Trying to figure out if this version is working.

Re: Net::DNS problem?
Interesting... I checked the Base.pm file for 0.48 and that line doesn't
exist. I guess the failed tests were just a coincidence, and I ended up
doing the right thing for the wrong reasons. :)

As for the "escapedchar" tests, this also failed for me under Solaris

Re: Net::DNS problem?
A slightly more detailed explanation - I should mention that I cannot determine the source of this problem exactly, but if I ran "make test" on 0.50 the "escapedchar" tests failed. If I went ahead and installed it anyway, I got the remote addr struc errors unless I told SpamAssassin that dns was not available (not a good option since it meant I couldn't use SURBL!) So I looked at the changelog to figure out when these escapedchar tests were put in, and it appeared to be pretty recent. Regressing to 0.48 seemed to do be far enough back to get rid of those tests and now everything works. Evan E. Falk wrote: I *just* finished fixing exact problem this on my own machine.
