The path to perl is embedded differently in /usr/bin/cli-generate
depending on if it was built on a usrmerge vs. non-usrmerge system.

https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/bookworm/amd64/diffoscope-results/bglibs.html

  /usr/bin/cli-generate

  #!·/usr/bin/perl
  vs.
  #!·/bin/perl

The attached patch fixes this by explicitly specifying the path as
/usr/bin/perl instead of using 'which' to detect the path, which is
compatible with both usrmerge and non-usrmerge systems.


According to my local tests, with this patch applied bglibs should build
reproducibly on tests.reproducible-builds.org!


Thanks for maintaining bglibs!
