title: How to install Perl-5.8.9 on Ubuntu
body: <p>I have a legacy Perl 5.8.9 project which I need to run in a docker environment. Since I new it worked on Ubuntu I tried compiling it on an Ubuntu 16.1 and</p>
  
  <pre><code>FROM ubuntu
  
  RUN apt-get update \
      &amp;&amp; apt-get install -y curl \
      &amp;&amp; apt-get install -y wget \
      &amp;&amp; apt-get install -y perlbrew
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>NAME="Ubuntu"
  VERSION="18.04.3 LTS (Bionic Beaver)"
  Images</p>
  
  <p>since I couldn't find the version on perlbrew, I tried compiling from perl-5.8.9.tar.bz2 which I downloaded
  Compilation failed having something to do with miniperl.</p>
