No, on the contrary 8-)

I don't know anything about special indentation requirements for perl and KDevelop indeed doesn't seem to have particular support for perl built in. But under Tools/Indentation you can select different indentation types which may be sufficient for your needs.

Why are you using KDevelop to develop in perl? You should get the same editor features in the more light-weight Kate editor which also has a project management feature, and maybe someone already wrote a plugin with additional perl support for it (but a quick search suggests that demand is low for this kind of thing - https://www.google.com/search?q=perl+ide)
