Any reason why you are installing the 32-bit version on a 64-bit
system?  Maybe you would have more success with a 64-bit version.  Or
if you do have the above packages, perhaps you could convince RPM just
to go ahead and install the package.  You might do better, as Dave
suggested, doing a more manual install so that you do not clash with
the perl version already installed.
