=Building SpamAssassin 2.63 on ActivePerl 5.8.2.808=

In order to do this, you essentially need to modify Makefile.PL, moving some code from the postamble to the constants section. The modified file is posted on this bugzilla report: http://bugzilla.spamassassin.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2955.

Here's how to do it yourself:

1. Find the subroutine MY::contants. Just before the clean_MY_globals call, add the following code:

     push(@code, "PREPROCESS    = \$(PERL) build/preprocessor");
       
     my($repository);
     $repository = uc($SELF->{INSTALLDIRS}) || 'SITE';
   
     foreach my $macro (qw(PREFIX SYSCONFDIR)) {
       push(@code, macro_def('I_' . $macro,
                       macro_ref($repository . $macro)));
     }
     

   
   2. In the following section (MY::postamble). Comment out (or remove the following):

     foreach my $macro (qw(PREFIX SYSCONFDIR)) {
       push(@code, macro_def('I_' . $macro,
                       macro_ref($repository . $macro)));
     }
     

   
   3. Also remove the following line:

   PREPROCESS    = $(PERL) build/preprocessor
