[Mimedefang] About to give up on mimedefang under RedhatLinux 9

[Kevin A. McGrail]

Here's the note I've posted and developed from numerous sources:

RedHat 8 and 9 Users Perl Requirement:
  With the recent patches to Perl 5.8.0, RH8 users are now having some of
the same Perl development issues that RH9 users have been having. Due to
this, please realize that most of these issues do have a work around. First,
UTF-8 support seems to cause most of the issues so if at all possible,
change the file /etc/sysconfig/i18n to LANG=en_US.
  Additionally, reports of using 'export LANG=en_US' or 'export LANG=C'
right before doing the 'perl Makefile.PL' have been reported to work. This
problem is well documented (for example, see
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=87682).



  Regards,

  KAM
