That's weird, I'm using the latest Perl with SpamAssassin myself with no issues (I get Bayes scoring).

We don't do anything special so if DB_File.pm shouldn't be included in core Perl I think we're better off making a separate package for it.

Thoughts?

The Bayes-DB in Spamassassin seems to be storable in a number of formats. So maybe your configuration just doesn't depend on DB_File.pm.

A separate package would be possible i guess, but CPAN says that DB_File.pm should be included in the standard distribution of perl (http://search.cpan.org/~pmqs/DB_File-1.820/DB_File.pm). [^] Did any config/compile-flags change between the last two perl packages?

It's weird since the only thing we have changed since the first 5.10.1 package is compiler locations and depending on bdb48 instead of bdb47.

If this is a problem for you you can get the old packages from http://csw.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/oldpkgs [^] until we figure this out.

I also hit this bug when my spamassassin bayes filtering stopped working. I did as suggested and reverted to the older perl-5.10.1,REV=2009.12.15 package. Thanks for keeping an old packages available.

Updated Perl packages 5.10.1,REV=2010.12.06 are available for testing at

Perl 5.10.1,REV=2011.01.15 again contains DB_File.
