For reasons discussed elsewhere, I've got to get serious about spam. But my |
2 |
first 3 attempts to emerge spamassassin have failed. (on x86). |

For one thing, there's a detection process near the beginning that is |
5 |
failing to detect Perl modules that are actually present, and from portage |
6 |
not CPAN. |
7 |
First it was Digest-SHA1. Re-emerging it fixed that, so maybe there was |
8 |
bitrot somewhere. But now it's doing the same thing with Mail::DKIM, but |
9 |
that's fortunately not a show-stopper like SHA1, but it's still worrisome. |

Now the show-stopper is some access violations that make no sense to me. It |
12 |
says it could not 'mkdir /usr/share/spamassassin', but I could do it |
13 |
from the command line (as root). Having done it, it still complained but |
14 |
proceeded to report an access violation on an attempt to 'chmod 0644 |
15 |
something'. |
16 |
I could also do that one from the command-line. Grrrr. |

Has anyone seen this, and know of a workaround? |
