I saw you already got your question answered, but just wanted to point
out (for future reference) the best way to search for a perl module is:
# dnf whatprovides 'perl(Some::Module)'
It wouldn't help in this case (since "say" is not a module). You do
have to quote the whole thing because the () are interpreted by the
shell otherwise.
I have been told by the Perl 5 list that "say" can harm things,
that is why they do it the way they do.
I personally have pretty much dropped Perl 5 for Perl 6.
Perl 6 is a YUGE clean up of Perl 5. "say" is part of
the code in Perl 6 and has no such issues.
