no biber command in PATH

I installed the new biber package, but I cannot execute any "biber" command in the terminal.

I hope that the following can help you to understand what I want so say

$ pacman -Qo biber
error: failed to find 'biber' in PATH: No such file or directory

Is it ok? There's another "new" way to compile the bibliography in LaTeX?

Thank you in advance,
Carlo

As I have written

but since than (I suppose) it has stopped working.

I know that it seems a stupid question, but I even tried to reinstall it and nothing happened.

Re: no biber command in PATH

What is the output of

$ printenv PATH
$ which biber
$ pacman -Qo /usr/bin/vendor_perl/biber

Re: no biber command in PATH

$ printenv PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/bin
$ which biber
which: no biber in (/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/bin)
$ pacman -Qo /usr/bin/vendor_perl/biber
/usr/bin/vendor_perl/biber is owned by biber 2.6-1

Re: no biber command in PATH

See /etc/profile.d/perlbin.sh or /etc/profile.d/perlbin.csh appear not to be sourced.
