[rt-users] mod_perl rpm and perl 5.8.4

[Justin Clayton]

Hello,

I just upgraded to RT 3.2.0 on my Red Hat Linux 7.3 box, and as a result
had to compile a new version of perl (5.8.4) to comply with the new
requirements. I use the apache-1.3.27-2 and mod_perl-1.26-5 rpms, but
the compiled perl (the perl rpm is still installed). Even though I
installed RT with the 5.8.4 perl, and have confirmed that version
appears at the top of all RT-related files I've looked at so far, I
still get errors like this in many places:

Undefined subroutine &Scalar::Util::weaken called at 
/usr/local/pkgs/rt3/lib/RT/Action/Generic.pm line 85.

I've looked everywhere: what could possibly be looking at the wrong
perl, and how do I tell it to stop? This is likely also what is causing
my EX_TEMPFAIL errors on all mail sent through the mailgate.
