hi folks, we are currently thinking about how to package perl 6 modules, some background and information at https://wiki.debian.org/Perl6PreCompProposal
Perl 6 does pre-compile modules on loading, a bit like the .pyc files. So I would be very glad if you could have a quick look at the wiki page above, perhaps you experience could help us. I am also specifically interested in your decision to create the .pyc files at package installation time, rather than at package build time. What was the reason for that? Do you still think it was the right decision? In the case of perl 6 the precompiled files depend on a fairly specific version of the runtime, so we would need to re-build them quite often... thanks robert -- Robert Lemmen http://www.semistable.com
