<masak> ok, camelia isn't enough to confirm this, so if I could ask
someone to double-check my (now-golfed) bug:
<masak> the program `use DBIish; DBIish.connect("Pg")` gives the error
`No such method 'trans' for invocant of type 'Any'` (which is correct
as far as that goes)
<masak> but `use DBIish; use lib "lib"; DBIish.connect("Pg")` gives
`===SORRY!=== Could not locate compile-time value for symbol DBError`
<masak> I have DBIish installed very normally, via panda
<ZoffixW> masak, yup: http://fpaste.scsys.co.uk/509608
(the paste is just a reproduction of the above problem, but for
completeness it follows below)
$ perl6 -e 'use DBIish; DBIish.connect("Pg")'
No such method 'trans' for invocant of type 'Any'

* masak submits rakudobug
<masak> this also immediately suggests a temporary workaround: I just
need to inline my module from lib/ :/
<jnthn> masak: Does putting the "use lib" *first* help?
<jnthn> masak: Note you probably should anyway, 'cus putting "use lib"
*after* modules have been loaded forces pre-comp to be disabled, iirc
<masak> jnthn: yes, putting `use lib` before `use DBIish` makes the bug go away
<masak> perhaps the bug is even related to precompilation being forced off?
<jnthn> Perhaps, dunno
