Here's the output of (display (string-append "PERL: " perl "\n")): PERL: /nix/store/rp1fdpa8fa4cdx3j76yyhi45lgx796nw-perl-5.16.1/bin/perl And 'perl' is defined like this: (perl (string-append (assoc-ref %build-inputs "perl") "/bin/perl")) There is also a corresponding line in 'inputs'. Why does the mentioned 'patch-shebang' line return the following? patch-shebang: /nix/store/k6w3d29k2i9acj3v9ypy19v4sqxki8gk-grue-hunter-1.0/bin/grue-hunter: warning: no binary for interpreter `perl' found in $PATH Note that 'substitute*' works fine.
