Ok, I see.

ExtUtils-MakeMaker could be upgraded from CPAN, but not installed from
CPAN (bootstrapping problem).
So, it must be installed by the distribution tool like the system perl package.

The logic of the proposed patch looks good for me. The message could
be more specific.
     `yum install perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker`
