Marcela, you need to rename one of these. there are a few issues here. 1 is
that you can only ever install one of these, whichever is the highest nvr will
always be chosen, 2 is that koji only ever allows you to have a rpm with a
single nvra once so if perl starts to provide a version thats already existed
seperatly you will not be able to build perl or vice versa. 

i do not know what this dual life thing your talking about is suppose dto mean,
but yum and rpm will only let you install a single version of a package name
unless specifically configured otherwise like the kernel is. i suspect that
things do not work however your thinking that they should be.
