Yeah, something certainly went wrong there. The perl-doc package contains
/usr/bin/perldoc, so it's apparently been removed afterwards somehow.

Do you have any logs left about the upgrade that would give us some clue?
Likely candidates would be /var/log/dpkg.log*, /var/log/apt/term.log*, and
/var/log/aptitude* .
