As far as I have been able to find out the best thing to do is to wait until the other packages has "caught up" with this Perl upgrade, at least a week or so. I tried to find out how to work arond this, but it didn't seem worth while, so I will just put upgrades on hold for a week or so hoping the Perk dependencies are fixed by then.
