ExifTool 11.50 won’t launch on macOS #63111
Description
Issue description
I just upgraded nixpkgs.perlPackages.ImageExifTool from 11.49 to 11.50. When I try to run it I get this error:
$ exiftool --version
zsh: /Users/bdesham/.nix-profile/bin/exiftool: bad interpreter: /nix/store/h400cvgl5nd2a2sq6qlzzxxs26dqpj7g-perl-5.28.2/bin/perl -w -I/nix/store/h400cvgl5nd2a2sq6qlzzxxs26dqpj7g-perl-5.28.2/: exec format error

If I try from bash (which is not my usual shell and which isn’t set up for Nix), the message is even more gruesome:
bash-3.2$ ~/.nix-profile/bin/exiftool --version
/Users/bdesham/.nix-profile/bin/exiftool: line 12: use: command not found
/Users/bdesham/.nix-profile/bin/exiftool: line 13: require: command not found

/Users/bdesham/.nix-profile/bin/exiftool: line 21: ` $exeDir = ($0 =~ /(.*)[\\\/]/) ? $1 : '.';'
If I roll back to version 11.49 the command works fine from zsh and from bash. Version 11.50 works fine for me on an Ubuntu 16.04.6 system.
Fun fact: I was the one who broke this 😳 I had tested it successfully on a different macOS system, one running Mojave. The failing system is High Sierra (10.13.6). I will try to see if I can fix this but I thought I should report the problem ASAP.
Steps to reproduce
nix-env -iA nixpkgs.perlPackages.ImageExifToolexiftool --help
