It was pointed out that I may have misunderstood your concerns with my first reply. That you were probably alluding to the fact that the code I offered the OP only detects the first possible matching sequence, rather than returning all possible sequences. I attempted to offer the OP a starting point from which to understand how to develop recursive solutions, rather than just hand him a complete solution on a plate.

That starting point can easily be extended to return the numbers involved in the (first) sequence detected:

sub sumTo {
    my $target = shift;
    for my $i ( 0 .. $#_ ) {
        return [ $_[ $i ] ] if $_[ $i ] == $target;
        if( @{
            $_ = sumTo( $target - $_[ $i ], @_[ 0 .. $i-1, $i+1 .. $#_
+ ] )
        } ) {
            return [ $_[ $i ], @{ $_ } ];
        }
    }
    return [];
}

And that can be extended to produce all sequences as follows:

sub sumTo {
    my $target = shift;
    return map {
        $_[ $_ ] == $target
        ? [ $target ]
        : do{
            my $x = $_[ $_ ];
            map {
               @{ $_ }
               ? [ $x, @{ $_ } ]
               : ()
            } sumTo( $target - $x, @_[ 0 .. $_-1, $_+1 .. $#_ ] );
        };
    } 0 .. $#_;
}

my @numbers = ( 5, -6, 8, 10, 12, 3, 10 );

print "$ARGV[ 0 ]: sum [@$_] => ", sum( @$_ )
    for sumTo( $ARGV[ 0 ], @numbers );

Each is a logical progression of the preceeding.
