[arch-general] spamassassin and perl-net-dns fail to find nameserver

Hi,

I've worked around the error caused by net-dns being a developer
release, but SA still fails to find nameservers so DNSBL checks will not
be used.

If you have the same problem add 'dns_server 127.0.0.1' or similar to
your /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf or better yet figure out why it
fails and contact the right people.

I currently don't have enough time to take a good look at the issue, but
I figured I should probably write this so you can at least properly
block spam.

Happy mailing and sorry for all the perl breakage. Ideas on how to
prevent them (library soname? sadly that seems unsupported by upstream
afaict) are very welcome.
