Jon gave me most of the answer I needed (still don't know what was wrong with make install of razor from source but so be it). As well as putting these into /etc/apt/sourceslist and running dselect and upgrading & installing I found that left me with a message:
> razor2 check skipped: Bad file descriptor Insecure dependency in open > while running setuid at > /usr/local/lib/perl/5.6.1/Razor2/Client/Config.pm line 414, <GEN230> > line 1. and I puzzled by that as I found the old messages (October last year) about this but then saw that the tainting patch had been assimilated into razor. Then realised that I had to stop SA manually and restart it (I assume that the link to the old razor hadn't been replaced somehow). Did that, did a razor discover though not sure that was necessary, and now everything's working beautifully again. Many thanks to Jon, Steven and others for all the help: magic list!
