When I was running Ubuntu MATE 20.04, I installed a program called 'rename'.
If I had a directory called Mr. Smith, and files in it called ...
Mr. Smith - Issue 1.pdf
Mr. Smith - Issue 2.pdf
Mr. Smith - Issue 3.pdf
... and I wanted to get rid of 'Mr. Smith - '
I would call rename like this: rename 'Mr. Smith - Issue 1.pdf' '' *.pdf
I recently installed Ubuntu MATE 22.04 LTS and installed 'rename'
When I try that command, I get an error:
Bareword "Mr" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at line 1.
Doing a 'man rename' makes it obvious that the rename I used to use is not the same one I have now.
Any idea how or where I can get the rename I used to have?
