What if we did something like bundling? Practically speaking, for at
least the foreseeable future, Rakudo requires Parrot and the primary
user of Parrot is Rakudo. Offering two separate packages for such a
closely-knit pair almost seems like a waste (it won't always be, but
let's be honest about th

I really meant "This way we avoid the Parrot-based compilers *break*..." -.-"

Isn't this what Rakudo Star does? AFAICT the Star "distribution" is nothing more
than a bundle of rakudo + nqp + parrot + some Perl 6 modules, which may be nice
from a end user POV, but it's

Okay, instead of just complaining about this, I want to do something
about it. The Rakudo packages are so fragile on Debian, that they need
special constraints to make sure the Parrot packages are held back until
the Rakudo packages are updated.
So, why is Rakudo so dependent on one specific month

Patrick and I just chatted on the phone, here's a summary of the working
scenario we reached:
- Rakudo will deliver a Rakudo release for each supported ("stable")
Parrot release, a few days after the Parrot release.
- Debian will package each supported release of Parrot.
Debian packages for Raku
That solution is fine by me. The real source of the problem is on the
Parrot side, and our extremely fragile versioning system for bytecode.
This is something that we need to address to help fix the problem in
the long term.
Exactly how we fix it is a matter for discussion, of course.
