I'd like to not have to retire it in EL-6. The dependency is perl(Socket), not perl(IO::Socket), and that's part of the EL-6 base distribution. You could file an RFE for an upgrade in Bugzilla but even if it was accepted, it'd be quite a while before it appeared. You might also consider asking IO-Socket-IP upstream why that particular version is needed; it's possible that it could be for something platform-specific to (say) Windows, which wouldn't affect Linux, and you might then get away with patching that version requirement down to what works on Linux.
