Oh. I thought that Getopt::Long was in the core, but it seems it actually isn't but only Getopt::Std. So the OP will have to make-do with that.

    Your first insticts were correct: Getopt::Long is a Core module (so there is no need to download it from CPAN) and has been for a Long time (just ask corelist): 
    corelist Getopt::Long
Getopt::Long was first released with perl 5
