Hi, it would be nice to have some build dependencies documented in e.g. README or on the website (compare http://docs.parrot.org/parrot/latest/html/docs/book/ch02_getting_started.pod.html "Build requirements"). E.g. for Debian the following hints would help (to save time): $ sudo aptitude install build-essential $ sudo aptitude install git-core subversion $ sudo aptitude install icu libicu-dev #[1] and maybe others from the Parrot Build Requirements (or options). [1] IMHO Perl 6 is rather useless without ICU. Compare also bug [perl #64864]. HTH Helmut Wollmersdorfer
