I see a new dependency on Perl File::FcntlLock,
which for Red Hat machines is the perl-File-FcntlLock package.
This is for the exim_id_update so may be a one-time requirement.


----

Just for info, once I added the perl-File-FcntlLock package, this
built and installed on Scientific Linux 6.

Since SL6 is several years unsupported and its OpenSSL is dangerously
ancient (1.0.1e) I trust no one is still using SL6.
