There are a couple of patches required to upstream modules:
https://fedorahosted.org/publican/#Patchesforrequiredpackages

This sounds like the HTML::TreeBuilder bug.

FYI I'm currently in the, rather drawn out, process of taking over these
upstream modules so I can release patched versions, when that happens
I'll bump the version requirements and this should go away forever!

Cheers, Jeff.
