v1 v2 3 3 > > ... 4 4 > ... 5 > The question is where the fix needs to be and how far the problem extends. The problem seems to have been caused by an innocuous-seeming change of the shebang line by the exiftool authors. If the fixing of the shebang line occurs in the perl module build process, should it have caught the new one too—do we need to file a bug report with the developers of perl or one of its module-building modules? Or if the fix should be in the perl5 portgroup we can of course fix it there. But how many other ports that use the perl5 portgroup or this module building process are also using the "wrong" shebang line that isn't being replaced? How do we identify and fix them all? Or is it perhaps erroneous for the developers of exiftool to have made this change and we should ask them to change it back?5 > The question is where the fix needs to be and how far the problem extends.
