/usr/bin/perl comes from the perl-base package which is always
installed. File/stat.pm comes from the perl-base modules package, which
is installed by default, unless you unselected the server task at
installation time. You should apt install ubuntu-server to restore the
default Ubuntu server
I install OS with iso ubuntu-18.10-server-amd64.iso. After installation,
the perl exists. But it lacks file /usr/share/perl/5.26/File/stat.pm
when comparing to the installed OS system with ISO ubuntu-18.10-live-
server-amd64.iso/ubuntu-18.10-desktop-amd64.iso/ubuntu-18.04-server-
amd64.iso.
So
I infer that what you are looking at here is the content of the squashfs
inside of the ubuntu-18.10-server-amd64.iso image.
This squashfs does not contain the perl or perl-modules packages. It is
not intended to. If you want the perl package installed, you should
select an installation path

This bug includes no details about what you mean by "not installed
correctly". Perl is a base package and there is no problem with its
installation in the common case.
