Well, in theory the version you have installed is newer than the
requirement, EXCEPT, that there's an epoch of 1 on yours which trumps
the version (the 1 in front of perl-DateTime). Since BackupPC is
provided by EPEL on Fedora, I would file a bug against it on bugzilla.
They may reassign it to the correct perl component but you may
eventually get things fixed.
