One way, which would be slow for directories with lots of files would be something like this. Sort the array of filenames, then use the pars before the _ as hash keys, the elements just overwrite the previous values.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
my @data = qw/12345_-v1.pdf 12345_Av1.pdf 123456_-v1.pdf 123456_Av1.pd
+f 123456_Bv1.pdf/;
my %hash;
for my $f (sort @data) {
my ($key,$version) = split /_/,$f;
$hash{$key} = $version;
}
for my $key (keys %hash) {
print $key . '_' . $hash{$key} . "\n";
}

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
