I believe the only perl used by pacemaker is in the
fence_legacy/fence_pcmk fence agents, and the crm_report tool. If you
don't use any of those, you should be fine with ignoring the dependency.

Since Amazon Linux is derived from RHEL, you'd probably have more luck
with the corosync/pacemaker/etc. packages from the comparable CentOS
version instead. There are some library version differences between
RHEL/CentOS and AL though, so no guarantees.
