in thread Can't get Tk.pm to work [SOLVED]

Forgive my skepticism. You can confirm or refute this easily enough with locate -r /bin/perl$.

You could also say which version of ubuntu you have installed so we can determine which perl is the interloper.

    This resolves to: 
    /snap/core/3604/usr/bin/perl
/snap/core/3748/usr/bin/perl
/snap/core/3887/usr/bin/perl
/usr/bin/perl

    Then I did the following: 
    for var_p in `locate -r /bin/perl$`; do echo $var_p; $var_p -v| grep '
+(v'; perl -le 'print "-" x 150;'; done

    It gave me the following results:

    According to results, all of them have version 5.22.1
    then I did: perl -le 'print for @INC;', it gave me: 
    /etc/perl
/usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.22.1
/usr/local/share/perl/5.22.1
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.22

    None of the paths show 5.20.2, so, I don't get it, where cpan gets it from.

      I assume you have Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS; x86_64, was this a new install or an upgrade from a previous Ubuntu version ? If so, what was previous version ?

      update Looks like perl v5.20.2 came with Ubuntu 15.04
