[PATCH] scripts: get_feat.pl: use /usr/bin/env to find perl

Posted by David Reaver 3 years, 9 months ago

I tried running `make pdfdocs` on NixOS, but it failed because
get_feat.pl uses a shebang line with /usr/bin/perl, and that file path
doesn't exist on NixOS. Using the more portable /usr/bin/env perl fixes
the problem.
