Thanks Stuart for your report and your help to make Ubuntu better.
To start on this I ensures that a clean and fresh 18.04 can install and run
sa-compile - and in fact it can.
So we need to find what the difference is for you.
A few things to check:
- the current libperl in 18.04 should be libperl5.26:amd64 - could you upgrade
that and all other packges and retry?
- verify that the content is correct
$ dpkg --verify sa-compile spamassassin
- there could be old conffiles from old versions in /etc/spamassassin/ that
drives it nuts
I'm not sure if you have any custom rules, but you could mv away all of
/ets/spamassassin
$ mv /etc/spamassassin /root/spamassassin.etc.backup
And then purge and reinstall the packages to get a clean slate on those:
$ apt remove --purge sa-compile spamassassin
$ apt install sa-compile spamassassin
If you have anything in the saved backup that you need you could plug that
back one by one to
check what exactly triggers the error.
Does that help to track down the root cause in your case?
