The Parrot backend hasn't even been supported for over a year. (There should be be newer packages in unstable, and possibly already in testing.) System-wide installation was broken when the new CompUnitRepo stuff was added, and was only recently fixed --- but still needs more testing, so if you choose to do a system-wide install of a sufficiently recent rakudo (I think this means 2016.05 or later) you should expect to be a guinea pig. -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allber...@gmail.com ballb...@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
