I’d go ahead and implement your plan. My suspicion is that this will affect very few users.</div>

Yes, pretty inconsistent. If this is for installation purposes and is bundled with a specific version of perl along with it’s installed dependencies, I would say switch to the perl used for installation. </div>

Personally, I use '#!/usr/bin/env perl’ for most cases, though this is because I work primarily in a cluster environment where the version of perl may change depending on what is loaded into the path at any point. However this is also primarily for development,
not for a typical user.</div>

<div><span>Hi<br>
<br>
I was wondering if there's any consensus about what should be used in<br>
the shebang line. Looking at the existing scripts, I found:<br>
<br>
#!perl<br>
#!/usr/bin/env perl<br>
#!/usr/bin/perl<br>
#!/usr/bin/perl -w<br>
<br>
Using the bioperl distzilla plugin bundle, 'perl' and '/usr/bin/perl'<br>
get converted to the path of perl used for the package installation.<br>
However, if '/usr/bin/env perl' it remains unmodified. This behaviour<br>
seems to be a bug in MakeMaker [1].<br>
<br>
To me it makes sense to have the shebang line replaced with the perl<br>
used for installation since that's the one that will have the rest of<br>
bioperl modules. But the most important thing, I think, is to be<br>
consistent.<br>
<br>
If no one opposes soon, I will change all of them to '/usr/bin/perl'<br>
so that it gets fixed during install.<br>
<br>
I will also replace the '-w' flag with the warnings pragma.<br>
<br>
