Indeed.

However, the script in question (/usr/bin/run-mailcap) uses modules not
shipped in perl-base.

  use Encode qw(decode);
  use I18N::Langinfo qw(langinfo CODESET);

So yes, the mime-support package in sid is missing a dependency on perl.
This seems to have regressed in 3.55 with the fix for #682900.

Filing a bug about this, thanks for noticing.
