CentOS - Apr 2008 - reinstall perl packages in Centos5

Hi, I'm running a CentOS5 email server with
mailscanner/postfix/spamassassin.. but it seems I made something  with
perl that now I get this error when compile ANY package using perl:

 

Global symbol "%Config" requires explicit package name at
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/Liblist/Kid.pm line 394.

Global symbol "%Config" requires explicit package name at

/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm line 42.

Compilation failed in require at Makefile.PL line 3.

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at Makefile.PL line 3. 

 

So, I tried to reinstall perl-5.8.8 package and nothing.. my question
is:

 

How can I Reinstall all perl packages using yum in CentOS5?

 

Thanks for your time

 

Regards

Israel.

Did this problem happen after MailScanner installation or before? 
Unfortunately, MailScanner forces the installation of a lot of Perl 
packages, even if they already exist or there are ones from CentOS or 
other repo's.
I suggest installing all required perl packages via yum and *not* install 
MailScanner with the provided install script. I always just install the 
single MailScanner rpm that gets provided in the "rpm.tar.gz" file for
Red
Hat. That helps to avoid this. There's almost no package in that tarballs 
that cannot be instaleld via centos or rpmforge repos.
As for reinstalling all the packages, "rpm -qa|grep perl" will give
you a
list of the installed packages. I'm not sure what the best way would be to 
remove or reinstall them as there might be a lot of dependencies.
