ctanify and Perl recursive copy

TeXLive 2021 with the ctanify utility worked correctly with my older Linux
installation.

I recently updated my Linux installation, which started from scratch with a
minimal Linux package install.  Ctanify stopped working, saying
"Can't locate File/Copy/Recursive.pm"
which I fixed by installing the Linux package
"libfile-copy-recursive-perl".

Does TeXLive come with its own Perl, and is the 2021 version missing the
recursive file copy?
