Hello,

I run Debian unstable. I noticed today that I don't have a 'rename'
command in /usr/bin anymore,


I can't recall 'rename' being a command anywhere but MS-DOS. You probably meant 'mv'.

there's a fancy rename program that comes with perl, it's managed by alternatives so I guess there are other rename programs but I only have one (how does one find about all alternatives? --list lists only the installed ones)

  on my machine (unstable):

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ which rename
/usr/bin/rename
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -l /usr/bin/rename
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 Jun 10 01:47 /usr/bin/rename -> /etc/alternatives/rename
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -l /etc/alternatives/rename
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Jun 10 01:47 /etc/alternatives/rename -> /usr/bin/prename
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dlocate -S /usr/bin/prename
perl: /usr/bin/prename
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
