Thank you. I never would have suspected this.
Done.

Done.

I was not sure how to resolve this, since the non-versioned dependency was
being automatically picked up by rpm. Google to the rescue.
That's when I discovered the __requires_exclude macro and added this to the top
of the specfile:
%global __requires_exclude perl\\(Time::ParseDate\\)

That did it.

Thank you for your time.
