Install it with CPAN... there's probably other dependancies that will fail, and CPAN will check for dependancies. Consider it like emerge (the real one) for Perl.

Using CPAN via CPAN.pm:
perl -MCPAN -e shell [as root]
o conf prerequisites_policy ask
install Mail::SpamAssassin
quit

That's how I've installed in twice, and that's how I upgrade it whenever they release a new version.
EDIT: I should note, you don't need to download *anything* to use CPAN. It'll download the current version automatically from the Perl CPAN archives. That includes both SpamAssassin proper, and any dependancies.
