Re: Perl problem (Scalar::Util)

I'm getting the following error from various perl programs:

Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/Scalar/Util.pm line 30.

OK... maybe we need an update:


[root ccim-mx3 ~]# perl -MCPAN -e shell
cpan> install Scalar::Util
CPAN: Storable loaded ok
Going to read /root/.cpan/Metadata

Scalar::Util is up to date.

Anyone have a solution?


See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=382481 - a recent update to perl broke other packages like MailScanner due to Scalar::Util issues. Try using "force install Scalar::Util" in cpan, that fixed it for me.

Some more information is available here, which is where I found the way to fix it. http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies-archive.cfm/843943.html
