After upgrading perl from 5.16 to 5.18 I'm getting in spamassassin's log messages as below, this happens on every mail.

perl-cleaner --all

[Comment 2 Alex Xu (Hello71) 2014-07-31 23:18:46 UTC]

actually, might not be. try anyways.

[Comment 3 Marcin Mirosław 2014-08-01 07:48:17 UTC]

It would be too easye if could perl-cleaner fixed it:

[Comment 4 Alex Xu (Hello71) 2014-08-01 13:00:24 UTC]

figures. can you run "find /usr/lib64/perl5 >/dev/null"?

[Comment 5 Alex Xu (Hello71) 2014-08-01 13:03:17 UTC]

as non-root obviously

[Comment 6 Marcin Mirosław 2014-08-01 13:26:26 UTC]

mohikanin / # sudo -u spamd find /usr/lib64/perl5 >/dev/null
mohikanin / #

[Comment 7 Alex Xu (Hello71) 2014-08-01 14:11:00 UTC]

yeah, I got nothing. maybe try restarting spamassassin?

[Comment 8 Marcin Mirosław 2014-08-01 14:50:22 UTC]

I tried gentoo-sources instead of hardened-sources, no changes. On other, similar host I don't have such problem so I'm nut sure if it's my problem or Gentoo.

[Comment 9 Mikle Kolyada (RETIRED) 2014-08-01 15:59:12 UTC]

Not a gentoo bug

[Comment 10 Marcin Mirosław 2014-08-01 16:11:05 UTC]

May I please some more explanation?

[Comment 11 Mikle Kolyada (RETIRED) 2014-08-01 16:31:55 UTC]

A can't definitely say what happend on your system, but it seems to be releated to bug 505282 (just other package). I can only say, there is no gentoo-side fault.

[Comment 12 Marcin Mirosław 2014-08-02 21:23:15 UTC]

Strace helped me to find out what happened.

1178  15:43:58 alarm(30)                = 0
1178  15:43:58 stat("/var/lib/spamassassin/compiled/5.018/3.003002/IP/Country/Fast.pmc", 0x3e098290490) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
1178  15:43:58 stat("/var/lib/spamassassin/compiled/5.018/3.003002/IP/Country/Fast.pm", 0x3e0982903d0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
1178  15:43:58 gettimeofday({1406987038, 132650}, NULL) = 0
117

I've changed owner (recursive) of /var/lib/spamassassin/ to spamd, it fixed problem. It looks that SA with perl 5.18 needs write access to directories which contains compiled rules.
