I presumed that the perl packaging had changed a bit between RHEL7 and FC
Rawhide, so I didn't go hunting dependencies down, I just changed it to
depend on the stock perl interpreter package.

They were explicit package dependencies in the FC Rawhide SpamAssassin
3.4.3 SRPM, sorry if that wasn't clear. They were not in the stock
RHEL7/Centos7 RPM or the FC Rawhide SRPM for 3.4.2, which I had built
earlier.
It's not a big deal, just some new packages to install for the build to
work. I don't think it rises to the level of a bug.

Right, that's not surprising given that is just a regular package I didn't
know about.
