Okay. Found the problem, but the solution doesn't work.

I copied texindy.pl into /usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/ where its perms are
755.

In /usr/bin/ I deleted texindy and created a soft-link to
/usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/texindy.pl. The /usr/bin/ version has perms:
# ll texindy
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 40 Dec  2 11:41 texindy -> 
/usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/texindy.pl

When I try to run the script (as a user) the response is:
$ texindy biota-to-set-wq-standards.idx
-bash: /usr/bin/texindy: Permission denied

This puzzles me as /usr/bin/texindy is a link with 777 perms.

What have I done incorrectly here?
