Rakudo Star = Rakudo plus Perl 6 modules.
It's a distribution of modules with a particular version of rakudo and
probably doesn't fit easily into the RPM model.
If you aren't including the Perl 6 modules it's not Rakudo Star but
plain "Rakudo" and should be named as such. and Fedora calling it Star
will confuse and mislead people.
The source file is rakudo-star but I have just noticed that the
make modules-install
line is commented.
Only make rakudo-install is not commented.
Will re-try with make modules-install

It's Rakudo Star, but packaged by Fedora
Maybe Fedora have packaged panda separately and its in another SRPM/spec
file?
Panda is not available.
Fedora does not look to support Perl6 actively for now.
Do you have a URL to the file(s) you are using?
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/rakudo-star.git/tree/rakudo-star.spec
I have just updated the version in the spec file to use Rakudo Star 2016.04

And no mention of panda in spec files.
I can easily install panda by myself but I am faced with module path
issues.
Rakudo Star 2016.04 comes with panda but it's no longer in the same
directory as "perl6" so you will need to add it to the path.
If you install from source then it will display the path you need at
the end of the last step.
On a system which uses the --prefix /opt/rakudo-star-2016.04 panda
will be installed under
/opt/rakudo-star-2016.04/share/perl6/site/bin/panda
You don't need to change the library installation location.

Hi
I have installed Perl 6 Rakudo Star 2016.04 but it comes without panda.
So I try to install panda and its requirements (Shell::Command, ...)
I think the best place for those libraries are in /usr/share/perl6/lib
or
/usr/share/perl6/site|vendor/lib
Unfortunately once installed, perl6 cannot find them because it looks
into
/usr/share/perl6/ or /usr/share/perl6/site|vendor/, not in
sub-directory
lib
in those folders.
So what is the best/common place to install Perl6 modules?
Alternatively how to change the Perl6 behavior to look into lib
sub-directories.
Cheers
