[TriLUG] CPAN and SpamAssassin

Okay.  I'm trying to install SpamAssassin a RH 7.1 machine.  So far 
I've got the machine upgraded via yum about as far as it can be.

When I try to install perl-Mail-SpamAssassin-2.63 I get the following 
error:

perl(HTML::Parser) is needed 

So I go to CPAN (perl -MCPAN -e shell).  I did a full update of CPAN 
from the sell, reloaded CPAN then tried the following:

cpan> install HTML::Parser

to which I got:

HTML::Parser is up to date.

Okay...

So, CPAN says I have HTML::Parser and RPM doesn't.  Any ideas on 
how I can resolve this?
