I have recently installed a few BackupPC systems on CentOS 6.2-minimal. I used the following RPM's:

NOTE: This list found by running yum localinstall BackupPC-3.2.1-6.el6.x86_64.rpm and finding the packages it could not find, all from EPEL
wget http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/6/x86_64/perl-File-RsyncP-0.68-6.el6.x86_64.rpm
yum -y localinstall perl-File-RsyncP-0.68-6.el6.x86_64.rpm
wget http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/6/x86_64/perl-Net-FTP-AutoReconnect-0.3-3.el6.noarch.rpm
yum -y localinstall perl-Net-FTP-AutoReconnect-0.3-3.el6.noarch.rpm
wget http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/6/x86_64/perl-Net-FTP-RetrHandle-0.2-3.el6.noarch.rpm
yum -y localinstall perl-Net-FTP-RetrHandle-0.2-3.el6.noarch.rpm
Download BackupPC RPM for RHEL 6:
wget http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/6/x86_64/BackupPC-3.2.1-6.el6.x86_64.rpm
yum localinstall BackupPC-3.2.1-6.el6.x86_64.rpm

y (Install 26 packages, including Apache HTTPd)

Works perfectly. Again, from a clean CentOS 6.2 minimal install.

If you're having problems, it is almost certainly because of other RPM's (and most likely, non-CentOS and non-EPEL RPM's) you've installed (or improperly uninstalled) before.
