Description Todd 2017-08-05 02:18:12 UTC
Request for Enhancement (RFE):

Would you please consider upgrading Rakudo to 2017.07?

EPEL already has, so you may be able to use their stuff:

$ cat /etc/redhat-release
Scientific Linux release 7.3 (Nitrogen)

$ rpm -qa rakudo\*
rakudo-0.2017.07-2.el7.x86_64

Comment 1 Gerd Pokorra 2017-08-05 10:38:05 UTC
I am sorry. The plan is to wait for the rakudo release of this month.

The release announcement is:
The next release of Rakudo (#114), is tentatively scheduled for 2017-08-19.

Rakudo 2017.07 is currently first in the epel7 testing repository.

It take me about a half day of my leisure to build the stack (moarvm, nqp and rakudo) for at least two Fedora branches (master, f26). So please have patience to wait for the update to 2017.08.

Rakudo 2017.06 and rakudo 2017.07 both implements the production standard Perl v6.c.
