This is a packaging bug (#193100).  It was fixed in FC6 back in June
but for whatever reason the fix wasn't made to the FC5 packages.   I
just added a comment to bugzilla to see if this can get fixed for FC5
since it is still supported.

Anyway, the fix for this one is simple, install perl-Archive-Tar.

I've been running spamassassin on my desktop and servers for a few
years now and it catches a boatload of spam with a pretty out of the
box setup.  I can't imagine trying to deal with my mail if I didn't
have it.
