Edit: I'm an idiot and forgot to use createrepo and update the repodata, so the dependencies were not found on the repo.
Mystery solved.
Bit of an odd one.
I'm attempting to install perl on a Redhat box, and one would think it'd be as simple as just going
yum install perl
As the documentation suggests, but doing so results in output like the following:
---> Package perl.x86_64 4:5.16.3-294.el7_6 will be installed

Attempting to install these other packages fails too, as they depend on perl, which fails for the same reason; needing the perl extensions listed above.
Any pointers on possible causes?
