     rpmlib(VersionedDependencies) <= 3.0.3-1 is needed by perl-5.00503-11

Install with --nodeps and it will work.  It seems that the RPM was
built with rpm-3.0.5, by mistake, and it needs rpm-3.0.5 to be
installed without --nodeps :-(

Unfortunately, rpm-3.0.5 wasn't officially released yet, but it's
expected to be out Real Soon Now (TM) :-)
