Tears. :'(
$ echo "a b c d" | perl6 -e 'say words[1]'
===SORRY!=== Error while compiling -e
Calling words() will never work with any of these multi signatures:
($what, $limit = Inf, *%named)
at -e:1
------> say ⏏words[1]
That means you’re using a pre-2017.07 rakudo

Hi Liz,
$ perl6 -v
This is Rakudo version 2017.03 built on MoarVM version 2017.03
implementing Perl 6.c.
Have you every heard the term "Kaisen"? It is a Japanese
word and comes from Dr. Demming's teachings (quality circles,
etc.). It means "Constant Improvement".
Well, now, I am stuck with using Scientific Linux 7.3
(Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3 clone), also know
as "Old-Out-Of-Date". Red Hat's philosophy is to
freeze known revisions in place -- bugs and all -- to
insure "stability". RHEL is an anti-Kaisen OS.
Since RHEL doesn't work on C236 chipset based motherboards:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1353423
I have been building Fedora servers instead. And
I have to tell you, the frustration factor with running
an Anti-Kaisen OS versus a Kaisen OS are about 10 to 1.
I will dump my SL box as soon I can afford it. I have
HAD IT with RHEL. RHEL is NOT more stable than Fedora.
The long and short of it is, I AM LUCKY TO EVEN HAVE
PERL 6.
I can ask EPEL (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux)
to update to 2017.07, but they will politely
tell me to go to ...
Is there any way to work around the issue?
