Hi,

Just answering this myself in case it helps anyone else:  This happened me
before too.

The trick was to disable the majority of the perl modules (which I didn't
need anyway but I had just included, rather than excluded, the perl
modules by default).

There must be a perl module thats automatically including the problem
module (perlbase-db-file) even though I not selected that module.

Anyway I've now got a successful build again which is good news
