Yes, it does not create a /usr/bin/perl symlink, starting with Perl 5.20.
If you still need one, and are not using some common shebang, like
/usr/local/bin/perl, which still works, or /usr/bin/env perl, which also
still works, create one yourself.
Cordialement, :-)
IMHO, the port should at least emit a warning, since almost every Perl
program I'm aware of (including those I wrote for 20 years, since
MacPerl) use shebang /usr/bin/perl. I even remember it's mentioned in
the Camel Book.
Cordialement,
Xav
