What is the Net::DNS version, are you pure ipv6 and are you

You are in no man's land there - the distro uses
perl-Net-DNS-0.59-3.el5
and the latest rpmforge package is perl-Net-DNS-0.66-1.el5.rfx.
If you're going to use rpmforge packages, keep them up to date
(you'll
need to enable the rpmforge-extras repo).
Hrm, not sure how that could happen, since I don't have rpmforge
disabled.
How could yum not be seeing the newer package?
cat /etc/yum.repos.d/rpmforge.repo
Well, knowing there was a newer package out there, hopefully no matter
where yum looked for it, I took a chance and removed it:
rpm -e --nodeps perl-Net-DNS
Then when I asked yum about it again, it found the new one from the
CentOS repo, so I installed it... it also needed to install perl-Net-IP
which I didn't have. So now I have
perl-Net-DNS-0.59-3.el5.i386.rpm
Running sa-update on the command line doesn't produce errors, so
I guess that the cron won't either.
Bad news - the error happened again when run from cron. It turns
out it's not sa-update specifically doing this, but the restart of
spamassassin itself:
/etc/init.d/spamassassin condrestart

With my spamassassin, perl-Net-DNS and per-IO-Socket-INET6
packages all being from CentOS repo, I'm unsure why this would
happen. What else can I look at?
Recap on my versions:
perl-IO-Socket-INET6-2.51-2.fc6
perl-Net-DNS-0.59-3.el5
spamassassin-3.3.1-2.el5
Net-DNS-0.59 is ancient and buggy
get the latest for your CentOS version from
http://pkgs.repoforge.org/perl-Net-DNS/
run a rpm -hUv so yum won't fiddle around with it during next CentOS update
that should hopefully solve your problem.
