[Mimedefang] Strange MIME-Tools error when make-ing Mimedefang 2.31

[Matt Bruce]

Hi all,

I have two problems on this Solaris 8 machine that I can't work out,
actually. I'd recently installed MD successfully (on a system not yet
operational), and received the following errors:

---8<---8<---
Mar 24 15:00:27 srv-waterloo mimedefang-multiplexor: [ID 980602 mail.info]
Slave 0 stderr: Can't locate MIME/Tools.pm in @INC (@INC contains:
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0/sun4-solaris /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/sun4-solaris
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at
/usr/local/bin/mimedefang.pl line 52.
---8<---8<---

The obvious response is to say I don't have MIME-Tools installed, but I do -
it's at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/MIME/Tools.pm (having installed
the RP patched version). Any ideas?

If it's of any relevance, I've been using mostly SunFreeware (SMC*)
packages: gcc, perl, glib, libtool, m4, make, zlib.

So I blew it all away (uninstalled PERL, and deleted the CPAN and
/usr/local/lib/perl5/* directories and MD source) and reinstalled. Seriously
frustrated. :)

The other problem I'm having a weird problem while trying to get MIMEDefang
installed. I've compiled/installed all of the relevant pre-requisites: PERL
5.8.0, CPAN modules (see below), Sendmail 8.12.8, MIMEdefang 2.31, ClamAV
(clamd), MIME-tools-5.411a-RP-Patched-02, and Razor Agents 2.22.

Configure runs fine - see the configure-output.txt attachment. The error I
get when running make on MD is:

All the searches I've done on Google indicate that adding -lresolv seems to
fix it for most people. As you can see - that's already there.
