I think we should be able to grab modules without using git if we can
rely on github and gitlab and whoever hosts modules to give
I don't see the real problem in having Perl6 requiring Perl5 to build
itself, at least not in the long term. So far the world simply cannot
survive without Perl5, but one day all applications will be hopefully
rewritten in Perl6 and so will be the tools.
In the meantime I guess the best and quickie

This is pretty much the definition of "self-bootstrapping". For some things
it is considered good; for others, bad.

There is a difference in gcc and perl5. A C compiler is needed to build
each and every thing out there. What is mean is: is bash version n-1 needed
to build bash version n? I believe the answer is no.

It's going to be easier to demonstrate stand-alone Perl 6 on Windows
than an *nix machine. If you remove Perl from them, the result will
probably be a broken system.

Bootstrapping is funny that way.
Besides the tools in the environment, you've got to have at least 1GB RAM
available to build perl6. I can compile it within the Gnuroot Debian app on
my Nexus 5, which has 2GB total real ram, so it has enough even inside the
Android app. I can't similarly buil

I disagree. Just because perl5 is currently required to *build* Rakudo
doesn't mean that perl5 h
Simplification of Rakudo's build process is an ongoing process, and I see
progress all the time.
Remember also that Rakudo is the most active and complete implementation of
Perl 6, but that there can and should be other completely separate
implementations.

Figuring out the environment, and how to best fit into it, is tricky, wants a
richly powerful programming language, like perl. Ideally one that's almost
certainly already available. Someday, Perl6 will be that language.
Hi,
Dependency on perl5 for building perl6 looks like a concern. It means that
we can't have and environment with perl6, without perl5. I may be thinking
too ahead, but isn't that the state we want perl6 to be in?
Thanks,
Dipesh

Actually, now that I think about it, I'm not as sure. Maybe, eventually, a full
perl6 compiler and runtime written entirely in perl6 might, possibly, be nice;
but using, and interoperating with, existing mature tools like e.g. make and
gcc has some big advantages, too.
I think that would be great. Also lovely if it were completely correct, which I
think is perhaps the biggest focus now, or nice and compact and fast, which
still has a way to go. Many lovely goals to enjoy working on.
wouldn't it be nice to have the MoarVM and one piece of software
in one file for the job ?

Bennet is correct.
If you're buildilng from source, you'll need perl5 and make (and git
if you don't have a tarball to work from)
If you're using MoarVM backend, you'll need a C compiler, and javac
for the JVM backend.
Note that Perl 6 is implemented mostly in Perl 6 and NQP (Not Quite
Perl 6),
I think perl6 isn't self bootstrapping, yet. Unless I've gotten myself
confused, some of the environment sniffing and basic build automation is in
perl5, and the foundation is in C. Also wants make.
'rakudobrew' and panda, maybe?

Hi,
is there a minimal tool set (best written in P6), that
can load the necessary rest from the internet to have a complete
Perl6 installation ?
