libperl.so is the perl runtime environment (essentially it is perl).
Are your scripts running inside the chroot are not?  If not this may
be understandable (though I didn't know libperl.so was ever part of
the anaconda environment at all...but there is a lot I don't know),
but if you are running in the chroot I can't imagine a perl
installation being done that would install the cli, without the
library...it just doesn't make sense.
