I just tried to use a Perl script inside a package (so inside the Nix sandbox), and it looks like Perl has a hardcoded /bin/sh that it uses for system("foo") calls. Is this a known thing? | 00:24:26 | |

Am I missing something? Should configure be patched to use `stdenv.shell`? I don't understand why `/bin/sh` would work for Perl's own build if `/bin/sh` doesn't exist in a normal build sandbox | 00:34:18 | |

system() calls /bin/sh when it thinks that it needs a shell | 01:57:37 | |
What are you trying to do specifically? Do you have an example I can look at? | 01:57:50 | |
