perl-base 5.8.8-7ubuntu3 (i386 binary) in ubuntu hardy

 A scripting language with delusions of full language-hood, Perl is used
 in many system scripts and utilities.
 .
 This is a stripped down Perl with only essential libraries. To make
 full use of Perl, you'll want to install the `perl', `perl-modules' and
 optionally `perl-doc' packages which supplement this one.
