Description Lowell Gilbert 2004-01-20 05:20:20 UTC 
p5-Mail-SpamAssassin now fails with the stock perl in -STABLE

This change came in the update from Mail-SpamAssassin 2.61 to 2.62.

Fix: 

I suppose the obvious solution would be to require perl 5.8, but that
doesn't seem very friendly...

The particular subscript in question should be easy enough to avoid,
but there seem to be other 5.8isms introduced also.  I'll look further
when I get a chance, but perl is not exactly my preferred language.
How-To-Repeat: 	

Running the latest ports version of SpamAssassin on a -STABLE system,
a perl error results:

Can't use subscript on split at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/Mail/SpamAssassin.pm line 100, near "1]"
