Details

The package now installs mimetype to /usr/bin/vendor_perl/mimetype, which isn't on PATH. I have a script which depends on the mimetype executable, which this package used to provide but no longer.
This task depends upon

The profile.d snippet perlbin.csh/perlbin.sh adds /usr/bin/vendor_perl/ to PATH. What shell are you using? Is it sourcing /etc/profile?

Sorry, I hadn't restarted my shell after installing `perl`. Apologies for the superfluous issue.
