I think you are using debian buster, i just checked https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/perl and it say 5.32.1-4+deb11u2

Is there any specific version of perl that you want to use?

Incase you system are okey to update, you may just apt upgrade and update your system to bookworm which have perl 5.36.0-7.

Incase you don't want huge upgrade and just want to have specific perl (like my first question) then using "perlbrew" might be the right choice

\curl -L https://install.perlbrew.pl | bash

Add the following line to your shell configuration file (e.g., ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc) to initialize perlbrew:

source ~/perl5/perlbrew/etc/bashrc

Then, restart your shell or run source ~/.bashrc (or equivalent for your shell) to apply the changes.

Install a specific version of Perl using perlbrew. Replace perl_version with the desired Perl version (e.g., "5.34.0"):

perlbrew install perl-<perl_version>

Set the installed Perl version as the default:
perlbrew switch perl-<perl_version>

Verify the installed Perl version:

perl -v

This way, you can manage multiple Perl versions and easily switch between them using perlbrew.
