perl is installed via the installPerl.sh script. The highlighted text in the screenshot shows that installDBBinaries.sh checks for the version on line 94. If that command fails, it runs the $INSTALL_DIR/$PERL_INSTALL_FILE on the next line. The double pipe (||) is the bash "if there's a non-zero return code, run the next command" while the backslash (\) is a line continuation.

Since the $ORACLE_HOME/perl/bin/perl -v version check isn't redirected to stdout, this will return the error you're seeing, but it's followed by execution of the perl install script:

# $ORACLE_HOME/perl/bin/perl -v || echo "Error handler"
/opt/oracle/product/12.1.0.2/dbhome_1/perl/bin/perl: No such file or directory
Error handler

@rolkey did the image build fail, or is your concern that the display of the error message is confusing?
