because:
and the output of:
ll [whatever the output from which texindy was]
ll [whatever the symlink points to]

$ ll /usr/bin/texindy
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 46 Dec  2 14:57 /usr/bin/texindy -> 
/usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/xindy/texindy.pl

So, I re-do the symlink and as a user:
$ ll /usr/bin/texindy
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 46 Dec  2 15:30 /usr/bin/texindy -> 
/usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/xindy/texindy.pl

and as root:
# ll texindy
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 46 Dec  2 15:30 texindy -> 
/usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/xindy/texindy.pl

So why does 'which' not find it?
