A quick look at the documentation for that script includes the lines:

renderpdf.pl [options] infile.pdf [<pagenums>]
 Options:
   -r --renderer=class uses this renderer class (default:
CAM::PDF::Renderer::Dump)

which suggests to me that the command line option should probably be
--renderer=CAM::PDF::Renderer::Text. That is, it expects the name of the
rendering class in full. Also, your command line doesn't look right -
unmatched quotes, and parameters seem to be in the wrong order

BTW, don't forget to remove that copy of Text.pm that you made. You can
really screw up your Perl installation doing things like that.
