Re: [suse-security] latest Perl upgrade broke parts of Perl

Means spamassassin any many other stuff has to be recompiled and reinstalled?

Fortunately not. What gets broken are modules which belong to the standard distribution, f.i. for SA this is Storable and Digest::MD5. You have to force install these to get the correct .so files back. In most cases the error message will show which module needs to be reinstalled. Suidperl may also stop working after the update unless you changed the permissions.local file to take care of that.
