If you find yourself on a Ubuntu system, after having installed the perl-debug package like so,
and when you try to use perl with the -D flag it still tells you
try using debugperl -D ... instead of perl -D ... or perldebug -D ...
I just spent about an hour tracking that down. Everything seemed to tell me I should use perl, or perdebug. Not the other way around like what actually worked for me.
BASH Code: [ Select ]
#sudo apt-get install perl-debug
and when you try to use perl with the -D flag it still tells you
Code: [ Select ]
Recompile perl with -DDEBUGGING to use -D switch (did you mean -d ?)
try using debugperl -D ... instead of perl -D ... or perldebug -D ...
BASH Code: [ Select ]
debugperl -Dr -e '/^([^.]+)$/'

Strong with this one, the sudo is.
