I just installed the MailScanner rpm file. It works fine, but the
dependency errors are keeping apt-get dist-upgrade from working as it
should. It wants to uninstall MailScanner to make the problem go away.

I can't get the perl *src.rpms to compile because they're tripping over
the modules I've already installed from CPAN. This happens even after
renaming the affected directories under /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0.

Well, I guess I'll just download the new version and compile the
binaries myself. I can't see any reasonable way to get things working
with rpm.

I am a little disappointed in rpm at the moment. People have always
complained about this sort of thing but it's the first time I've been
bitten by it.
