Hi

I'm trying to install amavisd-new from dag repo on centos3. In the spec file perl dependencies use parenthesis: perl(Digest::MD5) it also uses '-': perl-MailTools

The problem is that only the second notation is available: perl-MD5

I know this is an old problem. Is this only centos related? Is there a workaround?

Do I have to modify the spec file? I'd like to use yum...

I use amavisd-new as well.

I ran into some Per modules missing when using Dag. I switched to using RPMForge, which is a merger of Dag, Dries, and maybe one or two more. Since then I have not had the problem.

YMMV
