What's the output of this script supposed to produce?

Are you echoing the extensions that should be included due to
dependencies?

Is the syntax of perl-ext.2 required to be that way?

Can't you simplify it by only listing the variable names? 
Like this:

-----------------8<--------------------
Carp-Clan
Bit-Vector-6.4
Convert-ASN1
DBI
DBD-mysql        CONFIG_MYSQL_CLIENT
DBI-DBD-Pg       CONFIG_POSTGRESQL_CLIENT
DBI-DBD-mysql    CONFIG_MYSQL_CLIENT
DB_File
Date-Calc
libwww-perl
perl-ldap       CONFIG_OPENLDAPLIB
Crypt-SmbHash
IP-Country
-----------------8<--------------------
