I'm curious what you mean by "nowadays" here. In my experience, it's only Debian (and Debian descendants) that ships without documentation for Perl. I guess I'm wondering if (1) lots of other distros do this too or (2) Ubuntu does it (as a Debian child), and in your mind Ubuntu _is_ Linux nowadays.
