<masak> "PackFile header failed during unpack"
<masak> I just want to emphasize how much that error message,
meaning "wrong Parrot for this Rakudo", sucks.
<jnthn> masak: That probably needs to be a Parrot chnage, since it's
before Rakudo gets chance to take control and have its way with things.
<jnthn> masak: But I agree it's not clear at all to 99% of people.
<masak> I'll see about submitting a parrotbug.
