-The Perl SDK provides a generic set of wrappers so you can make API calls easily.
-
-This is a legacy SDK. It is no longer used or maintained regularly.
-
-h3. Installation
-
-h4. Option 1: Install from distribution packages
-
-First, "add the appropriate package repository for your distribution":{{ site.baseurl }}/install/install-manual-prerequisites.html#repos.
-
-On Debian-based systems:
-
-<notextile>
-<pre><code>~$ <span class="userinput">sudo apt-get install libjson-perl libio-socket-ssl-perl libwww-perl libipc-system-simple-perl libarvados-perl</code>
-</code></pre>
-</notextile>
-
-On Red Hat-based systems:
-
-<notextile>
-<pre><code>~$ <span class="userinput">sudo yum install perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker perl-JSON perl-IO-Socket-SSL perl-Crypt-SSLeay perl-WWW-Curl libarvados-perl</code>
-</code></pre>
-</notextile>
-
-h4. Option 2: Install from source
-
-First, install dependencies from your distribution. Refer to the package lists above, but don't install @libarvados-perl@.
-
-Then run the following:
-
-<notextile>
-<pre><code>~$ <span class="userinput">git clone https://github.com/arvados/arvados.git</span>
-~$ <span class="userinput">cd arvados/sdk/perl</span>
-~$ <span class="userinput">perl Makefile.PL</span>
-~$ <span class="userinput">sudo make install</span>
-</code></pre>
-</notextile>
-
-h3. Test installation
-
-If the SDK is installed, @perl -MArvados -e ''@ should produce no errors.
-
-If your @ARVADOS_API_HOST@ and @ARVADOS_API_TOKEN@ environment variables are set up correctly (see "api-tokens":{{site.baseurl}}/user/reference/api-tokens.html for details), the following test script should work:
-
-<notextile>
-<pre>~$ <code class="userinput">perl <<'EOF'
-use Arvados;
-my $arv = Arvados->new('apiVersion' => 'v1');
-my $me = $arv->{'users'}->{'current'}->execute;
-print ("arvados.v1.users.current.full_name = '", $me->{'full_name'}, "'\n");
-EOF</code>
-arvados.v1.users.current.full_name = 'Your Name'
-</pre>
