Re: automake-1.4.2 breaks aclocal and automake


I am guessing but I think the answer is simple.....

The following is an extract from "perldoc perlrun"

"Location of Perl
It may seem obvious to say, but Perl is useful only when
users can easily find it.  When possible, it's good for
both /usr/bin/perl and /usr/local/bin/perl to be symlinks
to the actual binary.  "

Hence, I am guessing why you are getting "command not found"......
Perl's not being found......

You need to create a symlink from /usr/local/bin/perl  to 
/bin/perl. The automake package inadvertently uses
#!/usr/local/bin/perl which is not a problem if you have the 
symlink.
