After several days of trying to update yellow dog linux so I could install qmail toaster I finally gave up on the update process and started over with fedora. I was to the point where I had to re-compile the kernel in order to upgrade other required package versions before installing the mail server. Anyway...moving on. I now have fedora installed (albeit much slower than yellow dog) and I've been able to install qmailtoaster up to a point. I'm currently stuck on spamassassin compiling and, after many searches on the net and your mailing lists (5 entries which lead nowhere), I cannot find any specifics on the package perl-forward-compat. The only thing I can figure the problem to be is maybe the package name was changed?
Which version of Fedora? Did you run the dependency script for your version of Fedora from the main site? I thought I had all of the dependencies filled in the scripts, so if I'm missing one/more than I would like to know. I only have Fedora 10 spooled up in VMW right now, but here are the perl packages I have installed:
