WORKSFORME: output of adjusted code on Perl Banjo with perl 5.30 is ...
g29205.t1
g29176.t1
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
while (my $record = <DATA>){
$record =~ s/\R//g;
if ($record =~ /^.*transcript_id "([^"]*).*class_code "([^"]*)/){
my $trans = $1;
my $class = $2;
#if($class eq 's' | $class eq 'x' | $class eq 'u'){
if( 'sux' =~ /$class/ ){
print "$trans\n";
}
}
}

NEVERMIND: I missed /g flag when matching 'sux' against /$class/: I had typed the test instead of copying from OP. I just did not think it was needed as the single captured letter will match the string without the flag. Yes, OP's problem persists if /g is insisted.
After a session of perl -Mre=debug ... as I understand the behaviour, when /g flag is used ('sux' =~ /$class/g), the last matched position in "sux" is remembered; next match is then started after that position. So if "u" was matched once, then next time match will start at "x". That will fail if the value of "class" on next line is "u" also.
The correct test would be: $class =~ /[sux]/ # /g is not needed; does not hurt either.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
