If it's on your systems, you know where to find the right perl (or python3 or ruby or...) If you're packaging for a particular distro, you know where they put it. If you're releasing into the wild, put /usr/bin/perl and mention in the README that some people may have to adjust the path. If you're releasing into the wild as part of something complicated, have the general installer ask the person installing for locations of binaries. If you have a really big old project, maybe configure is already in use... -dsr- _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
