Have you tried removing the double quotes from around $phver and see if that works?

I would make sure that the variable $patternph is getting set right by testing it with print statements so you can see it.

You have assigned the version number to $ver variable, why have you used $phver in your pattern?
Also, if you are getting $ver dynamically from file or through STDIN, do remember to strip newline using chomp.
Apart from that, I don't see anything wrong in th regex.

side note, use quoting operators to make your perl code more readable, instead of this monstrosity of a construct:
