I guess I did not understand you.

I went to install perl-Gtk2-1.062-1.i386.rpm and it needed 
perl-Gtk2-1.062-1.i386.rpm

After getting these two installed I get for tinyCA2:

--> Processing Dependency: perl-MIME-Base64 for package: tinyca2
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Missing Dependency: perl-MIME-Base64 is needed by package tinyca2

So obviously I did not get it...
