Re: perl6 INC
Agreed. I too found panda didn't successfully install, so I just switched from rakudo-star to rakudo, and I use zef. This package looks like it tries to build rakudo-star, panda doesn't, it installs what bits succeed, and quietly ignores those that don't. I think the packager should work from rakudo, and call the rpm rakudo, unless they can fix the problems so panda gets built and installed.
Re: perl6 INC
Rakudo Star = Rakudo plus Perl 6 modules. It's a distribution of modules with a particular version of rakudo and probably doesn't fit easily into the RPM model. If you aren't including the Perl 6 modules it's not Rakudo Star but plain "Rakudo" and should be named as such. and Fedora calling it Star will confuse and mislead people. The source file is rakudo-star but I have just noticed that the make modules-install line is commented. Only make rakudo-install is not commented. Will re-try with make modules-install S On 11 May 2016 at 13:46, Sebastien Moretti wrote: It doesn't sound you are using Rakudo Star but a vendor packaged version of plain Rakudo.

Re: perl6 INC
Panda or zef will have the same issue for me. What is the right place to put Perl6 modules? panda installed them in /usr/share/perl6/site/lib/ but Perl6 looks only in /usr/share/perl6/site/ in my case. If you ran Configure with --prefix specifying the final install dir, not the temporary buildroot, might that help? Also, have you tried zef instead of panda? When I built perl6 on (NB _on_, not just _for_) Android, I found zef easier to get going. I put a note up about that on bet.github.io.

In a pinch you can define the environment variable PERL6LIB to point to module directories. HTH -Tom

I have a particular installation, so I follow Fedora spec files and at the end no panda. And no mention of panda in spec files. I can easily install panda by myself but I am faced with module path issues. Rakudo Star 2016.04 comes with panda but it's no longer in the same directory as "perl6" so you will need to add it to the path.
