Reproduced, there should be no libmodule-corelist-perl package 
installed to see the warnings.

Fixed in Git. Thanks for the excellent analysis!

Now, about this one:

> + Module::Build >= 0.40 found in libmodule-build-perl ( 0.40) 
> | perl-modules ( 0.40)

What should we do here? Using dependency's version for perl-modules is 
plain wrong. We could use a '??' version (not sure if some validation 
won't croak) and advise installing a recent Module::CoreList (e.g. via 
libmodule-corelist-perl package or even CPAN).
