Just talked on #fink about this: * dmacks thinks perl-version-independent scripts should either be forced to always encode /usr/bin/perl or [be forced to always encode /sw/bin/perl and have a Depends for it] [...] < dmacks> Looks like texi2html encodes "first perl in PATH" at build-time? [...] * dmacks has verified the assumption about texi2html's #! encoding behavior. I just committed a new texi2html to 10.3/unstable that forces use of /usr/bin/perl always (no doubt portable to Tiger, but I'm not on that cat to test it right now:) dan -- Daniel Macks [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.netspace.org/~dmacks ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.
