Details

Description: When installing perl-image-exiftool, the executable is not put into a place that makes it immediately accessible to the user.

Executable is put in:
/usr/bin/vendor_perl/exiftool

Manually adding a link to /usr/bin/ accomplishes this. Perhaps this could be done automatically?

Additional info:
* version: extra/perl-image-exiftool 9.90-1


Steps to reproduce:
1) install perl-image-exiftool from pacman
2) attempt to run `exiftool`
This task depends upon
