That makes sense as the dependency specification in META6.json is faulty.
Observed Behavior
The package is installed.
Expected Behavior
The package is not installed.
Wild guess: The installation (as in copy files into the CURI) actually succeeds. But the precompilation of the sources fails. That's not part of the installation process itself and in principle optional. So technically the installation actually succeeded. If that is the case, then the error message is misleading.
Steps to Reproduce
$ zef install --/test 'DateTime::Timezones:ver<0.4.1>:auth<zef:guifa>'
# Results in an installation failure
$ zef install --/test 'DateTime::Timezones:ver<0.4.1>:auth<zef:guifa>'
All candidates are currently installed
No reason to proceed. Use --force-install to continue anyway
