Perl module RPM package dependency problem

[Edward Prendergast]

Hi,

That seems like a bit of a rigmarole - as the rpmforge perl packages 
seem to be reasonable up to date what's the possibility of just removing 
the MailScanner perl modules and allowing rpmforge to take over? Or will 
this be reversed as soon as the next MailScanner update is performed?
