I think your perl installation and your git installation may come from
different sources, and the perl install may not satisfy the git
install's dependencies.

In GNU/Linux distribution lingo, I'd call this either a distribution
error, or (maybe more precisely) a git package error. Normally the git
package should spell out the pre-requisite package names, along with the
minimum required package version(s). And the package manager should
enforce that, when installing git.

Other people appear to have encountered a similiar issue before:

https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues/24210#issuecomment-366831944

https://github.com/msys2/MSYS2-packages/issues/1152

https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/54326

https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/62948


When I check on my laptop now, I see:

$ rpm --query --requires git-email
[...]
perl(Net::SMTP::SSL)
[...]

and recursively,

$ rpm --query --requires perl-Net-SMTP-SSL
[...]
perl(IO::Socket::SSL)
[...]

In other words, whenever it was that I ran "yum install git-email" (for
gaining access to the "git-send-email" command), yum made sure that
"perl-Net-SMTP-SSL" and "perl-IO-Socket-SSL" would both be pulled in.

(Assuming the RPM spec files spelled out minimum versions on the
dependencies, yum would enforce those particular versions too.)

So, it could be a MINGW64 packaging bug, perhaps.

Thanks,
Laszlo
