if the missing depends is ExtUtils::MakeMaker or perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker, then you have a problem. This perl module is provided by perl.rpm in C5.x and the RPM DB will generate errors if you try and update the module.
So take your medicine and don't force the install. One workaround is to install perl from source and run it somewhere other /usr/bin/.
