I am trying to set up Mailscanner on my Debian Woody mail server. On the Mailscanner site I have found a document that seems to explain exactly how to accomplish this:
http://www.sng.ecs.soton.ac.uk/cgi-bin/faq?_highlightWords=debian&file=226
However, the mailscanner package that is currently found in the unstable tree is not the same version as mentionned in the document (4.26.7-2 instead of 4.24.5-1) and it does not install well at all.
If I do: dpkg --install mailscanner*.deb, I get:
Selecting previously deselected package mailscanner. (Reading database ... 17953 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking mailscanner (from mailscanner_4.26.7-2_all.deb) ... dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of mailscanner: mailscanner depends on libnet-cidr-perl; however: Package libnet-cidr-perl is not installed. dpkg: error processing mailscanner (--install): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: mailscanner
And if I try to start mailscanner later, I get:
Starting MailScanner... Can't locate Net/CIDR.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/share/MailScanner /usr/local/lib/perl/5.6.1 /usr/local/share/perl/5.6.1 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.6.1 /usr/share/perl/5.6.1 /usr/local/lib/site_perl/i386-linux /usr/local/lib/site_perl . /usr/share/MailScanner) at /usr/share/MailScanner/MailScanner/Config.pm line 34. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/MailScanner/MailScanner/Config.pm line 34. Compilation failed in require at /usr/sbin/MailScanner line 42. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/sbin/MailScanner line 42
Now I am wondering if it would be possible to get this new mailscanner running on Woody at all, or if I should try to find the old package (4.24.5-1)?
Any suggestions much appreciated!
