See #316403 for a very similar issue that was fixed by removing the circular dependency between libgconf2-4 and gconf. In all cases, it is a very bad idea to have a circular dependency in such a core package, and it may trigger similar issues in many cases. Since there is no real reason for perl-modules to depend on perl, please use Conflicts to ensure the versions are correct instead. Thanks, -- .''`. : :' : We are debian.org.
