I liked the split method recommended above.

Can you use the OR in the split command to pattern match at the time of the split?
You want the version number to be the last element of the list that split returns, so you could reverse the list, grab the last element, slurp the rest into an array, reverse that array back the right way round again and join the elements with underscores.
There are filenames without "_": 12345.pdf
Yuk, make an @unversioned array and push them into that if you only get one element from split?
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
my @data = qw/12345.pdf
12345_-v1.pdf 12345_Av1.pdf
123456_-v1.pdf 123456_Av1.pdf 123456_Bv1.pdf

my %hash;
my @unversioned;
for my $f (sort @data) {
my ($version,@key) = reverse split /_/,$f;
my $key = join "_",reverse @key;
if($key) {
$hash{$key} = $version;
}
else {
push @unversioned,$version;
}
}
for my $key (keys %hash) {
print $key . '_' . $hash{$key} . "\n";
}
print join "\n",@unversioned,q{};

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).
