RE: perl indentation

You may use perltidy.

I have inserted the following code in my .emacs, then C-c t will do the job on any marked region.
If you use activeperl, perltidy will be located in "Perl_Directory"/site/bin/perltidy

;; PerlTidy
(defmacro mark-active ()
    "Xemacs/emacs compatibility macro"
    (if (boundp 'mark-active)
        'mark-active
      '(mark)))
(defun perltidy ( )
  "Run perltidy on the current region or buffer."
  (interactive)
  (let ((orig-point (point)))
    (unless (mark-active) (mark-defun))
    (shell-command-on-region (point) (mark) "perltidy -q -ci=2 -bli -l=0 -lp -vt=1 -vtc=1 -nsfs -ndln" nil t)
    (goto-char orig-point)))
(global-set-key "\C-ct" 'perltidy)
