Hello
}}}
A recent Perl is installed in Haiku, it's just in a different place than
most Unixes.
{{{
~> which perl
/boot/common/bin/perl
}}}
That's why I'm asking for Perl shebangs to be changed to the more general
{{{ /usr/bin/env perl }}}, or even better, simply {{{ perl }}}. In the
boot script, the {{{ system }}} call should also be modified.
