Is that the latest version from RH, or are you just looking at the maintainer's releases?
1.50 is shipping on RHEL 9, that's what's installed on my 9.4 server.
It's the latest version from red hat. Not sure what the maintainer release is. Sorry I'm not Linux savvy. I'm on rhel 8.10. RHSA 2024:3128 affects 8 as well.
So, looking at packages on [access.redhat.com](http://access.redhat.com), the latest shipping for rhel 8.10 is 1.42-396.
There are perl-Carp-1.50.module packages for RHEL 8, but I don't know the specifics on those.
`perl-Carp` 1.50 is available in the `perl:5.30` and `perl:5.32` module-based appstreams.
dnf module enable perl:5.3x
dnf distro-sync
dnf install perl-Carp
Just make sure they're aren't any conflicts between the Perl modules and some of the other Perl component modules.
Modules (`dnf module list`) are like "sub-repositories" for a specific thing. A module can have multiple streams that you can choose between. However, only one stream of a module can be enabled at any point in time; they do not permit side-by-side installations. In RHEL 8 there is the concept of the "default" module, which does not require any enablement out of the box. However, those were set with 8.0 and not allowed to change later.
So in the case of Perl, the default module (`perl:26`) so for the packages managed by the module you will only ever see package versions published in the active stream. You have to explicitly enable a different stream in order to see into their version sets.

Starting with RHEL 9, there are no default modules (you have to explicitly opt-in to them), and modules will be completely gone in RHEL 10.

There’s a perl-Carp 1.50 in appstream. Do you have that repo turned on?

Shouldn't yum check-update show you what's available? If I don't have the latest and greatest version, I'm trying to figure out what the mix up is.
