After over three years of pretty much not using Arch Linux (I was only keeping a VM of it to keep updating my AUR packages), I have decided to finally step down as a maintainer for this (and my other AUR packages). Whoever feels up to the task of maintaining this may volunteer.

(It’s usually relatively uninvolved: bump the pkgver in moarvm then nqp then this, run updpkgsums then makepkg --printsrcinfo > .SRCINFO as needed, build the packages in that order to check, push the changes. The most likely bump you might encounter, and it’s not that likely either, is that this or nqp gets a .1 release but its dependencies don’t, so that you might have to temporarily change depends=(nqp>=$pkgver) into a more relaxed requirement. Even that could be automated in principle but I guess I never bothered.)

Failing right now because rakudo.org is down (and redirecting to github.com/rakudo/rakudo), but changing the source path to https://github.com/rakudo/rakudo/releases/download/2023.10/rakudo-2023.10.tar.gz works fine

Just in case you ever wonder about aarch64, I've tested and everything in the chain up to (and including) Rakudo compiles and runs fine.

Hey! Just another little request for the inclusion of perl6-install-dist as with rakudo-git, https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=rakudo-git#n43

install -Dm 755 tools/install-dist.p6 "$pkgdir/usr/bin/perl6-install-dist"

It makes installing Perl6 modules much easier (and is required by e.g. zef).

Trying to install the nqp dependency fails with E404 due to some problems on the rakudo servers (see https://github.com/perl6/rakudo.org/issues/26)

You can install rakudo from https://perl6intro.com/files/rakudo-star-2019.03.tar.gz, following the instructions here: http://perl6.org/downloads/.

The url in PKGBUILD can be updated with this one, but I'm not sure what would happen with the nqp dependency then (rakudo installed nqp for me, though maybe this can be turned off). One might end up with two instances of nqp if they install rakudo with nqp already installed, but I guess there should be a way to turn that off.

2018.12 is out but I won’t be able to update the package until next week because I am on vacation without access to my Arch install. Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

Could you please put back perl6-install-dist? The file was renamed from "install-dist.pl" to "install-dist.p6", which broke the previous command.

Last update solved the issue for me. Thank you.

@spider-mario Yes it is a build error. I had the same problem on three different machines. I build in this order: moarvm, nqp and rakudo. moarvm and nqp are now installed with the last version, but rakudo fails to compile. I think that alexpr just had to downgrade moarvm and nqp, as the old rakudo fails to start with the updated dependencies. Tell me if I can do something to give you more information about the problem.
