Hello Patrick,

probably a stupid question, but do you actually use the perl module inside 
your kamailio cfg? If not - I would suggest to just remove the 5.0.1 perl 
module, and also not install it for 5.0.7. 

If you need it - the quoted artice states that its actually not difficult to 
install mod_perl from the EPEL repository. This looks quite ok: "EPEL is the 
high-quality RPM collection for RHEL and CentOS linux, maintened by the Fedora 
project.".

Best regards,

Henning
