Comment (by mojca):

 Thanks a lot for the report.

 Out of curiosity: does `perl5.30` work?

 I fail to see what exactly goes wrong. As if miniperl was called with
 something like `$UNKNOWN_VARIABLE/miniperl` and then ends up being called
 as `/miniperl` and not found, but I'm not sure where.

 Would you be willing to ask on the perl's IRC channel (or whatever other
 communication channels) in case they might have any insight? (They might
 ask you additional questions or suggest what to try; even when I ask, I
 cannot provide them the answers that you can).
