Then you can run cpan2rpm on any tar.gz from CPAN and build RPM
packages. That's twice "canonical" - you're using the newest CPAN stuff
_and_ it's all in RPM.
I have a dummy spamassassin RPM that installs nothing other than the
knowledge that a dummy spamassassin is present to satisfy the YUM monster.
No need to do that. Just pull all the prerequisites from CPAN, run
cpan2rpm on each one and install the packages, then build and install
the spamassassin RPM (rpmbuild -ta spamassassin*.tar.gz).
