That's a good point. If the perl is a complex beast, any kind of "fix" could be problematic. If you can't figure out the logic, it will be difficult to rewrite in some other language. It's hard to say more without knowing what the problem is or seeing the code. My main point is that there are differences between languages, and that certain languages are better suited for more complex, large-scale systems, other languages more suited for medium tasks, others for tiny tasks. There can come a point where a program is poorly supported by the existing programming language, too slow, lacking functionality, or too hard to maintain.

perl::prereqscanner::scanner::perl5
Perl::PrereqScanner::Scanner::Perl5(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Perl::PrereqScanner::Scanner::Perl5(3pm)
NAME
Perl::PrereqScanner::Scanner::Perl5 - scan for core Perl 5 language indicators of required modules
VERSION
version 1.012
DESCRIPTION
This scanner will look for the following indicators:
o plain lines beginning with "use" or "require" in your perl modules and scripts, including minimum perl version
o regular inheritance declared with the "base" and "parent" pragmata
Since Perl does not allow you to supply a version requirement with a "require" statement, the scanner will check the statement after the
"require Module" to see if it is "Module->VERSION( minimum_version );".
In order to provide a minimum version, that method call must meet the following requirements:
o it must be the very next statement after "require Module". Nothing can separate them but whitespace and comments (and one semicolon).
o "Module" must be a bareword, and match the "require" exactly.
o "minimum_version" must be a literal number, v-string, or single-quoted string. Double quotes are not allowed.
