How should packages handle installation of scripts that use the #!
mechanism of invoking a shell. In particular, how should packages
deal with installing perl scripts that begin
#! /usr/local/bin/perl
Is there a general mechanism for switching this to
#! /usr/pkg/bin/perl
or whatever is appropriate for the ${PREFIX}? Do we have to do manual
patching in each case? How do you solve this problem?
Cheers,
Brook
