Scripts in upstream sources



Hi mentors,

In a package the upstream programmers have included some PERL scripts that are
based on a manual PERL installation (/usr/local/...).
How do i manage to include these scripts in path /usr/{sbin|bin} ?
Have i to patch these scripts and review them to put parameters in a file
located in /etc (actually all parameters are set directly in the PERL script)
or working on scripts, submit to the upstream (always done after a patch) and
waiting for an answer of the upstream programmer ?
In the solution using patch, if upstream programmer agree the patch, a new
version of package will have to be released !

I need your advices.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Laurent
