Hello Kajsa, Did you ever use CPAN to install any perl modules on your system?
I my case _I_think_ that may have been the source of my problem. I did some locate and find searches and I found I had the sax files in different locations. I decided (perhaps not correctly) that those in /usr/local/ were from CPAN dependency installations. I did this: find /usr/local -name *SAX* -exec rm -fR '{}' \; then I used Synaptic Package manager to completely remove, the other versions in this order: libxml-sax-perl libxml-libxml-perl libxml-simple-perl check_gmail (Those because those were the ones that were giving me problems at the time) Then I used Synaptic Package manager to reinstall them in the same order. I have not had the problem since then.
