FYI - using atom to work with perl6

The problem described was a bug in the file-icon package of atom. The regex for assigning an icon to perl was too loose and so perl6 files, in some circumstances, were being associated with the perl5 icon.

Can you please tell me what Perl / Perl 6 plugins are enabled in your Atom environment (i.e. ~/.atom/packages)? I previously had some problems when debugging my Atom plugins while language-perl was enabled. It has a built-in perl6 grammar which conflicts with our language-perl6 atom plugin.

                highlighting. Also I came across Atom from this group.

                Although files with .p6 or .pm6 have a nice camilea
                icon associated with
                them, ...

                ... if I give a p6 file an exec bit, the icon changes
                to something like
                an onion.

                I'm using Ubuntu.

                I've searched on Google, tried StackOverflow, and
                tried the Atom sites.
                I can't find where to look to change this behaviour.

                Sorry for the slightly off-topic question.
