I have just installed SA 1.55 and Anomy Sanitizer 1.60, both called from a Courier Maildrop .mailfilter file, on Red Hat 9.0. I discovered the hard way that there are all sorts of Perl troubles caused by a setting in RH8.0 and RH9.0 to do with Unicode. Googling "Perl" and "UTF-8" leads to many other people's bad experiences. I hope to have the revised documentation of my installation up in the next few days, at:
http://www.firstpr.com.au/web-mail/ The short version is that you can change the entire LANG=xxx.UTF-8 situation by removing the ".UTF-8" from /etc/sysconfig/i18n . Alternatively, before doing anything such as installing Perl modules, put this in front of the command line: LANG=C or almost anything else, such as LANG= Apparently having the UTF-8 in the LANG environment variable causes all sorts of problems with Perl, and I read somewhere that even if you get things to build, they may run more slowly. Of course if you want to use Unicode, then you need some other approach. Below are some URLs which are relevant to this. Another problem is if I run Midnight Commander on a UTF-8 machine via an SSH link to a terminal on a non UTF-8 then graphics characters are messed up. - Robin - - - - http://www.unicode.org http://www.linuxmanagers.org/pipermail/linuxmanagers/2002-December/000885.html http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-8.0-Manual/release-notes/x86/#general-notes http://www.europe.redhat.com/documentation/HOWTO/Unicode-HOWTO-1.php3 http://www.askbjoernhansen.com/archives/2003/03/24/000280.html http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Codev/UsingPerl58OnRedHat8 http://archive.develooper.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg97360.html (UTF-8 upsets MakeMaker, so upsetting many Perl builds.) ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: eBay Get office equipment for less on eBay! http://adfarm.mediaplex.com/ad/ck/711-11697-6916-5 _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
