You need not even say that.  You can put an Artisitic licensed package alone
on a CD, price it at $100, advertise it as "Perl for sale" and the worst
you will suffer is cries of "Shame! Shame!".  The author has promised not
to sue and no one else can.

The Artistic is not the most well drafted license out there.
