Oops, I meant:

rpm -q --whatrequires perl-IO-Socket-INET6

no package requires perl-IO-Socket-INET6

Try rpm -q --whatrequires 'perl(IO::Socket::INET6)' - Perl dependencies in RPM-land are rarely expressed in terms of the package names:

-->  Running transaction check
--->  Package perl-IO-Socket-INET6.noarch 0:2.51-2.fc6 set to be erased
-->  Processing Dependency: perl(IO::Socket::INET6) for package: spamassassin
                              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

For my own RPM-based systems, I keep my own .spec file around since even the RPMForge package pulls in too many other things that I don't use. It's just an older version of the RPMForge one (the one from SA v3.2.3), lightly updated as necessary to build the current release without build errors.
