libperl5.24

shared Perl library

This package contains the shared Perl library, used by applications which embed a Perl interpreter. It also contains the architecture-dependent parts of the standard library (and depends on perl-modules-5.24 which contains the architecture-independent parts).

perl-debug

debug-enabled Perl interpreter

debugperl provides a debug-enabled version of Perl which can produce extensive information about the interpreter as it compiles and executes a program (see the -D switch in perlrun(1)). Note that this package is primarily of use in debugging *Perl* rather than perl programs, which may be traced/debugged using the standard perl binary using the -d switch (see perldebug(1)). In addition, this package also includes debugging information for the normal Perl interpreter.
