[PLUG] Mailwatch...

My perl is rpm installed, but it is custom compiled perl-5.12 and not
recognized by cpan2rpm as fullfilling the perl requirement.  Is there a
trick to bypass this issue?  I recompiled to use vim, vim now works like
a charm.  I'm trying to set up mailwatch as I want to do something
intelligent with the flood of mailscanner reports I'm getting from
quarantined messsages.  These mail programs seem well done, but I'm
having a hell of a time figuring out how to combine spamcannibal,
mailscanner, mailfilter, postfix, etcetera.  I haven't been able to make
spamcannibal for example tarpit anything yet.  Can I reprogram the rpm
database to treat the perl requirement as satisfied?  I apparently need
to install the perl modules DBD and DBD_mysql for mailwatch to work.
I could invoke cpan and try to do it that way, but I'd rather go the
cpan2rpm route if at all possible.
