Well at the time of packaging the perl packages rendered the current versions
of all those stand-alone modules uninstallable (since the perl packages
declare conflicts for versions of those packages << the version included
in perl) you needen't worry about them *now*.
If at some stage in the future a newer version becomes available, and
there is sufficient reason to want that newer version they may be
repackaged.
