Well, this was explained in the review ticket:
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=167376

"This package is a bit odd.  To avoid circular dependencies, I've
 bundled DateTime, DateTime::Locale, and DateTime::TimeZone."

I'm not sure of the best way to avoid those circular dependencies, but
surely bundling a few closely related and very small modules is low on
the hierarchy of packaging sins.

PD> I suggest that you open a bug against perl-DateTime.

Not sure what good it would do, given the above.
