Of course ! Perl 5.004 is perl5 and perl-5.005 is perl5. Check the version
number ! :-)
The problem with DB::FIle is not at all the reason for having perl-5.004
and perl-5.005. The reason is that perl binary modules work only with the
perl version they have been compiled with (so they have to depend on a
specific perl).
