/bin/perl vs. /usr/bin/perl
Hi, what's the proposed Debian way to deal with a different location of the 'perl' executable? Fedora has /bin/perl, Debian has /usr/bin/perl. Since I still have Fedora on the desktop and Debian on the VMs, I need compatibility. -- Again we must be afraid of speaking of daemons for fear that daemons might swallow us.
