Folks
In a test Centos 8 installation as a guest of VirtualBox on Windows
10, I want to install ffmpeg, and support for exfat. They're not in
the standard distribution (as far as I know), so I issue as root:
yum -y --enablerepo rpmfusion-free-updates install ffmpeg fuse-exfat
exfat-utils
and that works just fine. The ffmpeg functionality works; I haven't
tested exfat yet. However, later, as part of maintenance, I want to
get a list of everything that's installed, so I issue
yum list installed
and the following diagnostics occur:

By the way, cpanm works ok too.
My questions are:
What do these diagnostics tell me? What am I supposed to do about it?
Thanks for your help

I think its telling you that perl is NOT installed but the listed perl
modules are installed although it could be looking for specifically the
5.26 version of perl (since you mentioned the CPAN works). What happens
if you issue perl -v? perl gets installed as a dependency of logwatch
as an example so a lot of people don't realize that they have perl
installed whether they want it or not.
Cheers,
Dave
