Yea, usually using the package manager that came with each OS.  On
OpenSuSE you'd use "yast2" and the Software Management category to
load some version of Perl5.  Xubuntu would have some other package
management system, perhaps "apt-get perl"?

Try "perl -v" to see if it's already installed on either/both
systems.
