Check all your scripts and change the sharpbang / shebang / sharp bang /
she bang to:

#!/usr/bin/env perl

Taken from perl-5.6.1-1-README by E. Fifer:

See `perldoc perlrun' for more details.  In particular, it explains the 
"#!/usr/bin/env perl" trick as well as other tips on what you should use 
as the first line of your program.
