Random note: A first step to enhance the situation could be to remove the circular dep between perl and perl-modules. perl should depend on perl-modules and not the opposite (a conflicts/breaks should forbid the upgrade of perl-modules alone). That way the configuration and unpack order is less random. But that doesn't change much for our problem. Other random remark: in #482140 which seems to have the same root cause the solution used has been to rely on perl-base only.
