I have not solved that error.  I’m not  a perl programmer so I emailed the 
folks at msbl.org and they haven't been able to get hold of the author of the 
perl module (Steve Freegard I believe).  I think I have all required perl 
modules installed but names vary between distributions so sometimes that a toss 
of the dice.  I don't know if it's just a Debian thing or is more widespread...

Hi Kevin,
 
I am just trying this and getting the same error.  Did you work out how to fix 
this?
 
Cheers,

Subject: MSBL Email Blocklist (EBL) SA usage query

Has anyone tried out the the MSBL Email Blocklist (EBL) HashBL.pm with 
Spamassassin from msbl.org and possibly considered packaging this module 
(available from this page: http://msbl.org/ebl-implementation.html) with 
SpamAssassin (perhaps in a forthcoming release)?  rSpamD already has internal 
support for the EBL. So I believe the MSBL folks are for this sort of thing in 
general.

This plugin looks through the message (not just headers) for email addresses 
which have been identified as email drop boxes for scams like 419 advance fee 
fraud.  It then looks hashes of these addresses up in a blocklist. 

I'm not affiliated with these folks.  I do however use this module in my setup 
though and find it catches a bunch of things we wouldn't have otherwise caught.
