reinstall spamassassin (broken perl)

spamassassin was broken on my Ubuntu 20.10 and I can't reinstall it.

I have done

dpkg --purge spamassassin sa-compile spamc
deluser --remove-all-files debian-spamd
apt update
apt upgrade
apt install spamassassin

and I get errors:

How to install the Ubuntu package spamassassin now?

I have also checked this (on another machine): install 20.04 LTS, upgrade to 20.10, install spamassassin, it works, so the problem is with proper cleaning.

The working installation has Perl v5.30.3 while the non working has v5.30.0 (although it is up to date according to apt update).

Perl version inconsistency on the non working Ubuntu:

sudo cpan
/usr/bin/cpan: Perl lib version (5.30.3) doesn't match executable     '/usr/bin/perl' version (5.30.0) at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.30/Config.pm line 62.

Compilation failed in require at /usr/share/perl/5.30/CPAN.pm line 44.

How do I update install Perl

At /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.30/Config.pm line 62, I have replaced 5.30.3 by 5.30.0.

span runs but I had to kill it after hours of tests and it has not updated /usr/bin/perl.

apt install spamassassin succeeds.

Finally, I have replaced perl 5.30.0 by 5.30.3 copied from the other working installation and restored /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.30/Config.pm.

Both binaries have exactly the same size 3478464 bytes.

Actually perl5.30.3 was already in /usr/bin so renaming it perl would have been enough.

After installing spamassassin, spamd produced an error at line 62 of /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl-base/Config.pm.

sudo apt reinstall perl-base updated (the version number in) /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl-base/Config.pm.
