CentOS - Removed perl-IO due to bug in updating via 'yum'

I was told to update my server for other reason, not knowing that perl-IO
was used by mailscanner. 

 

There is a few posts on how to fix CentOS by removing the perl-IO, someone
from the Datecenter I rent my server from asked me to remove this and now
mailscanner will not start.

 

Now when I run 'yum install perl-IO' I get the error bellow! 

 

Can anyone help me reinstall perl-IO now I think perl has been updated? 

 

Thanks
