psad not working on ubuntu 20.04 LTS

[mme89]

hi,
yesterday I updated to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and I can't get PSAD to work anymore.
Tried both variants to install via apt-get and via install.pl. The errors resulting are similar.

Would you like to install the latest signatures from http://www.cipherdyne.org/psad/signatures (y/n)? y [+] CMD: '/usr/sbin/psad --sig-update' Can't load '/usr/lib/psad/x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi/auto/Date/Calc/Calc.so' for module Date::Calc: /usr/lib/psad/x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi/auto/Date/Calc/Calc.so: undefined symbol: DateCalc_Day_of_Week_to_Text_ at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.30/DynaLoader.pm line 193. at /usr/sbin/psad line 3302. Compilation failed in require at /usr/sbin/psad line 3302.

Would you like to install the latest reputation feed data (y/n)? y [+] CMD: '/usr/sbin/psad --reputation-feeds-update' Can't load '/usr/lib/psad/x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi/auto/Date/Calc/Calc.so' for module Date::Calc: /usr/lib/psad/x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi/auto/Date/Calc/Calc.so: undefined symbol: DateCalc_Day_of_Week_to_Text_ at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.30/DynaLoader.pm line 193. at /usr/sbin/psad line 3302. Compilation failed in require at /usr/sbin/psad line 3302.

anyone noticed the same behavior?

@teminvictus I receive the following issue when trying to build 2.4.6 from source (however apt-get works for me but version 2.4.3):

[*] Could not copy psadwatchd -> /usr/sbin/psadwatchd: No such file or directory at ./install.pl line 516.

I looked a little more into it. Using the latest GitHub version, the same error still comes up.
But I managed to get it working.

This error comes up in all situations:

Compilation failed in require at /usr/sbin/psad line 3302

I looked in line 3302 and uncomment this line:

# require Date::Calc;

This at least makes psad work again. Not sure what the consequences are, but till now everything seems to be working.

I tried again today and successfully I did not have to ucomment the line 3302 @teminvictus all I had to do was install the dependencies contained in net-tools and g++.

@libellux , thanks.

For now my solution seems to work, psad is doing everything normal.
I will keep monitoring it.
