Vadim,
Your response is like a whisper in a storm. Perhaps there is meaning to
it, but I have not the ears wherewith to hear it.
(a) I am trying to find a way to test a Module under Windows when I do
not have access to a Windows machine. So no I do not see how I could
follow the steps of the script manually. That is precisely why I am
trying to use appveyor. Not ideal. No.
And (b) your words are as perplexing to me as the error messages
themselves. If I were able to understand the error message, I would
probably be able to understand what you wrote, but I can't so I don't.
If you look at the error message from the Rakudobrew script, it says
'perl6 is not available'. But a few lines previously, there is the line:
`Rakudo has been built and installed.`
And I understand that to mean that perl6 would be available. Note that 'perl6'
is not explicitly used anywhere in my script, so I don't know where it is
appearing.
I appreciate the time you took to read and respond to my email, and I
realise I have made an error and that I truly do not understand entirely
what I am doing,
but that is precisely why I have written for help.

Did you ever tried to follow the steps of you script manually? I guess
on a clean system without pre-installed rakudo you'd get the same
result. Because `build` only builds a release. When it's ready one
needs to `switch` to the built. So, no, these two are different.
Best regards,

Is the appveyor stanza (see the rakudobrew script below)
- rakudobrew build moar %TEST_MOAR%
the same as what you are suggesting?

Not really sure about it, but don't you have to do 'rakudobrew
switch moar-%TEST_MOAR%' after building? rakudobrew doesn't
immediately activates a build.

I have tried two different strategies on appveyor. (I also run a
travis test for the same Module that passes without a problem).
a) Copying from OpenSSL, which uses rakudo.git (see script below)
b) Copying from GTK::Simple, which uses Rakudobrew (see below)
Both failed for reasons I can't work out. (The final lines are below)
Could someone suggest an install stanza that would use the latest
`rakudo-star-***.msi` installation package?
It would be good to have some samples in the raku documentation.
I can provide my travis script (I use JJ's docker image).

I'm still using rakudobrew for myself, it is not a problem. Besides, we still
install perl6.
What I'd look for is if correct PATH is setup; and check if rakudobrew is been
used properly. Note that different modes (env or shim) would need different
handling. To my understanding, in a container shims are preferable over env.

I'm new at using appveyor, so maybe my script is wrong. But I wonder whether
its because of a name change to raku without a backward alias to perl6.
