There is a vast gulf between your proof of concept bash script and the OP's code!
I see your bash script, for example, calling:
rm GeoIPCountryCSV.zip
I do not see your Perl script calling:
system ("rm GeoIPCountryCSV.zip");
Look at the OP's code again. Have you ever seen anything like it?
I haven't, which is why I asked for the backstory behind it.
Sadly, it looks like we'll never know because the OP seems to have vanished (presumably forever) from the Perl Monks universe.
This is a tragedy because learning the backstory would make the description of the why behind this
code much more interesting when it's deservedly viewed by a wider audience.
BTW, given your interest in using a proof of concept, you might be interested in a three-part series

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).
