[root@centos ~]# cat /etc/*release*
CentOS release 6.5 (Final)

Percona-Server-shared-51 provides the required libmysqlclient.so.16

[root@centos ~]# rpm -q --provides Percona-Server-shared-51
MySQL-shared
Percona-XtraDB-shared
libmysqlclient.so.16()(64bit)
libmysqlclient.so.16(libmysqlclient_16)(64bit)
libmysqlclient_r.so.16()(64bit)
libmysqlclient_r.so.16(libmysqlclient_16)(64bit)
mysql-libs
mysql-shared

[root@centos ~]# cat test.pl
#!/bin/env perl

use DBI;

$dsn = "DBI:mysql:database=test;host=localhost;port=3306";
$dbh = DBI->connect($dsn, 'irfan', 'irfan');

[root@centos ~]# perl test.pl

[root@centos ~]# rpm -qV perl-DBD-MySQL
Unsatisfied dependencies for perl-DBD-MySQL-4.013-3.el6.x86_64:
        libmysqlclient.so.16()(64bit) is needed by perl-DBD-MySQL-4.013-3.el6.x86_64
        libmysqlclient.so.16(libmysqlclient_16)(64bit) is needed by perl-DBD-MySQL-4.013-3.el6.x86_64

But as soon as i install Percona-Server-shared-51 it installs libmysqlclient.so.16 and works as expected.

[root@centos ~]# perl test.pl
[root@centos ~]#

When you try to install perl-DBD-MySQL via yum it installs Percona-Server-shared-51 as dependency.

[root@centos ~]# yum install perl-DBD-MySQL
