You can see information in bug 2314: http://bugzilla.spamassassin.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2314 which should help you to clean up your installation.

But in short:here's an example that shows the problem:

The machine which had the issue What I found on the one box I looked at which exhibited this behavior is that the user had two versions of Digest::SHA1 "installed". 2.04 which was fully installed, and 2.01 which only had the .pm module files (none of the related XS libraries). The "use lib" in SA caused the 2.01 pm module to be loaded, but the only XS libraries it perl could find was 2.04, which caused DynaLoader to barfthrow errors.What I did was to run the following

To see the problem, you can run this command:

No Format
$ perl -e 'use lib "/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0"; use Razor2::Client::Agent;'

changing that the path as appropriate to whatever SA's install does.is set to (look in the "spamassassin" script).

The error that came out What I ended up seeing was:

No Format
Digest::SHA1 object version 2.04 does not match bootstrap parameter 2.01 at /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0/ppc-linux/DynaLoader.pm line 219.
Compilation failed in require at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/ppc-linux/Razor2/String.pm line 4.

I then looked Looking around the directories and found the different versions as mentioned abovethen showed the PM/XS issues as described above. The solution was to remove all Digest::SHA1 related files, reinstall 2.04, then try the above perl commandline again, which now worked fine.
