I've seen a number of patches doing this and I hate it for 2 reasons:

1) the perl stuff should be looked at and split out in a subpackage whenever
possible
2) it doesn't actually fix the problem, since you need to specify the
perl-modules it needs as well.

So patches like this drag in perl while at the same time not actually fixing
the problem of failing runtimes, only papering over RPM bitching out
dependencies.
