HTML::FormFu is a HTML form framework which aims to be as easy as possible to use for basic web forms, but with the power and flexibility to do anything else you might want to do (as long as it involves forms).

You can configure almost any part of formfu’s behaviour and output. By default formfu renders “XHTML 1.0 Strict” compliant markup, with as little extra markup as possible, but with sufficient CSS class names to allow for a wide-range of output styles to be generated by changing only the CSS.

To fix this problem, we can install more using the command below.

sudo apt-get -y install libhtml-formfu-perl

This command might take some time to finish depending on your machine internet connection.

You can also use apt command to install libhtml-formfu-perl.
