You are receiving this error because you did not install these perl
modules via RPM. When building an RPM there is a section in your SPEC
file that defines what other packages must be installed on the system
in order for the package to run. This information is queried from your
RPM database. If you have installed these dependencies and wish to
force the rpm installation you can use the "--nodeps" option in your
rpm command invocation. Example:

rpm -ihv --nodeps mysql*.rpm
