Ok, I see what I did wrong - I typically install stuff in containers with --no-install-recommends to avoid a lot of junk. The "perl" package recommends netbase. So a normal install would have gotten it.
I guess this can be closed. If anything, maybe netbase should be a harder dependency of some perl stuff, which would be an ubuntu core project issue. It just took so much effort to figure this out :P
