Will it work of with a rawhide system ?

For the port I haven't got hte faintest idea. I'm just reporting the error. But
the following snippet taken from the file referenced in the maillog error may be
enlightening:

  dbg("dns: name server: $ns, family: $family, ipv6: $ipv6");

  # find next available unprivileged port (1024 - 65535)
  # starting at a random value to spread out use of ports
  my $port_offset = int(rand(64511));  # 65535 - 1024
  for (my $i = 0; $i<64511; $i++) {
    my $lport = 1024 + (($port_offset + $i) % 64511);

    my %args = (
        PeerAddr => $ns,
        PeerPort => $self->{res}->{port},
        Proto => 'udp',
        LocalPort => $lport,
        Type => SOCK_DGRAM,
        Domain => $family,
    );

    if (HAS_SOCKET_INET6) {
      $sock = IO::Socket::INET6->new(%args);
    } else {
      $sock = IO::Socket::INET->new(%args);
    }
    $errno = $!;
    if (defined $sock) {  # ok, got it
      last;
    } elsif ($! == EADDRINUSE) {  # in use, let's try another source port
      dbg("dns: UDP port $lport already in use, trying another port");
    } else {
      # did we fail due to the attempted use of an IPv6 nameserver?
      $self->_ipv6_ns_warning()  if (!$ipv6 && $errno==EINVAL);
      die "Error creating a DNS resolver socket: $errno"; <-- Error that ends in
the logs
    }
  }
  defined $sock or die "Can't create a DNS resolver socket: $errno";
