One option to fix the breakage and get a controlled transition later is
to upload the older libdbi-perl with an epoch and do binNMUs again, That
still means sourceful uploads for libdbd-mysql-perl and libdbd-csv-perl,
which already had their dependencies bumped.

DBI 1.610_90 is considered a development release on CPAN, and it
looks like it was introduced for libdbd-csv-perl 0.2800-1, see #576672.
However, DBI.pm 1.611 (contained in libdbi-perl 1.610.90-1) is only a
recommendation in META.yml. The requirement is just 1.00.
