You'll find the program at:

http://www.arix.com/perl/cpan2rpm/

What I would do is try and build rpms for the modules (including 
spamassassin) wit hthe cpan2rpm program.

It is quite easily done. You need to pass the name of the moduzle to it 
like

cpan2rpm Compress::Zlib

and it will download the package from cpan and build an rpm which you then 
install with rpm -Uvh etc.

It also takes targz on the command line, and buils an rpm.

The idea was that you can actually build an rpm, which shoudl overwrite 
your current installation. You then can uninstall with rpm -e  ,and that 
shoudl take care of cleaning it up.

Maybe it  is too complicated, but I can think of any other way to clean up 
the system. (Apart from manually deleting the files).

Hope this helps,

.peter
