 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
                        package-cleanup --dupes
                        rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
The program package-cleanup is found in the yum-utils package.

Y si pruebas a instalar el paquete de perl desde los repositorios, te dirá que esta actualizado:

# yum install perl

Nothing to do

No te preocupes, tiene fácil solución. Bajaremos los paquetes de la versión 1.35 y lo instalaremos solventando el error:

# wget http://yum.trixbox.org/centos/5/RPMS/perl-URI-1.35-3.noarch.rpm

Instalamos el paquete de Perl usando el comando:

# rpm -i perl-URI-1.35-3.noarch.rpm

Ahora, prueba a instalar subversion y ya no tendrás el problema anterior:

# yum install subversion
