Lintian tag: example-wrong-path-for-interpreter

Type: information

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

The interpreter used by this example script is installed at another
location on Debian systems. Normally the path should be updated to match
the Debian location.

Note that, as a particular exception, Debian Policy ยง 10.4 states that
Perl scripts should use /usr/bin/perl directly and not /usr/bin/env, etc.
