| Subject: | cpan shebang incompatible with Git Bash |
The shebang supplied with starberryperl/bin/cpan doesn't work with Git Bash:
$ head `which cpan`
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use 5.006;
use strict;
use vars qw($VERSION);
use App::Cpan;
$VERSION = '1.5902';
my $rc = App::Cpan->run( @ARGV );
$ cpan
bash.exe: /c/strawberry/perl/bin/cpan: /usr/local/bin/perl: bad interpreter: No
such file or directory
Correcting the shebang to "#!/usr/bin/env perl" fixes this problem.
$ cpan
cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.9800)
Enter 'h' for help.

$ specs perl bash git os

Unknown or ambiguous command '--version'; type 'help' for commands.
cpan --version
c:\strawberry\perl\bin/cpan version 1.5902 calling Getopt::Std::getopts (version 1.07 [paranoid]),
running under Perl version 5.16.2.
[Now continuing due to backward compatibility and excessive paranoia.
See 'perldoc Getopt::Std' about $Getopt::Std::STANDARD_HELP_VERSION.]
Nothing to install!
