I would start by getting a later version of perl
and/or checking which one is used:

perl -version

which perl

whereis perl

Then perhaps modify you path to use a different perl version.

Later,
Bill

Hi,

Swatch requires perl 5 and the following modules: Time::HiRes, Date::Calc,
Date::Format, and File::Tail.

You will need to install those.
