I have a variety of installations:

Home - Cygwin (on Win10) - Perlbrew

$ perlbrew list
 * perl-5.36.0
   perl-5.34.0
   perl-5.33.5
   perl-5.32.0
   perl-5.30.0

$ perl -v

This is perl 5, version 36, subversion 0 (v5.36.0) built for cygwin-th
+read-multi
[download]

$work - openSUSE - zypper

$ perl -v

This is perl 5, version 26, subversion 1 (v5.26.1) built for x86_64-li
+nux-thread-multi
[download]

$work - Debian - apt

$ perl -v

This is perl 5, version 32, subversion 1 (v5.32.1) built for x86_64-li
+nux-gnu-thread-multi
(with 47 registered patches, see perl -V for more detail)
[download]

For my home setup, I've used Perlbrew for a very long time (>10 years, I expect). I've had my current machine for 3-4 years. Prior to that I had a Mac Pro (for ~9 years) and used Perlbrew on that also. I tend to get each Perl (stable) version when released. I do a full install of all my main modules on each version using cpan.

For $work, I'm somewhat constrained with what's available and requirements to align with what others are using. I do all module installations with the package manager (indicated above).

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
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).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
