perl-MIME-Base64 appears to be part of the base perl package. The latest
perl package for cos5 on RF appears to be 5.8.8-10.el5_2.3. When I
# yum update perl-MIME-Base64
it (appropriately) goes ahead and tries to update my base perl package to
this latest version.

FWIW, on COS5 I'm currently running perl-5.8.8-10.el5_0.2 from the cos repo,
and spamassassin-toaster-3.2.4-1.3.13.

I don't see where your problem is. Can you be more specific? Where/why'd you
come up with perl-MIME-Base64?
