Re: [perl #133107] LTA: require of non installed module
The problem is actually caused by the error reporting:
https://github.com/rakudo/rakudo/blob/08b951c8f33cfc702c308e64efcb44f3ec725117/src/core/Exception.pm6#L2969
The only heuristic I’ve been able to find so far that the value of $ns{$_}
suddenly is no longer fully qualified if the namespace doesn’t exist. I guess
we can build some heuristic check on that, but it feels fragile. Perhaps nine
/ ugexe / jnthn have a better idea about that.
