a) that says your server is running 11.3, not 9.6 (you might want to
update your own machine).
b) That really depends on how it was installed.
If they used a normal package repo they'll just want to install the
postgresql11-plperl package or equivalent, and then restart PostgreSQL
(although I'm not actually sure the restart is required?) and then do a
"CREATE EXTENSION plperlu;" in your database.
If they did some kind of custom installation then they might need to
just figure it out.
