I'm not sure, but I think this means that your *attempted* install of the
rpmforge package fails! (So, this is from your attempt to fix the problem,
it didn't create the problem!)
I started looking for the problem, when amavisd-new failed with an error
pointing to File::Temp.
It may not have failed because of the attempted installation above, but
because amavisd-new needs functionality that is not in the core File::Temp,
but only in perl-File-Temp-0.19-1. Coincidentally (?) the very latest
MailScanner also needs the very latest perl-File-Temp ...
AFAIK it is not recommended to replace files from the Perl core package.

This has been a sore spot with some rpm distros. Perl should be packaged as a
core, and all other modules should be just that, modules. The trouble would be
who will define what is the core of perl, and what is modular. Some times you
can only solve these with a rpm --force, rpm --nodeps, or CPAN. And none of
these options are optimal.

MailScanner is like deodorant...
You hope everybody uses it, and
you notice quickly if they don't!!!!
