Description Wesley 2023-06-23 04:26:44 UTC
After installing rakudo via dnf, I expect that running rakudo -v in the terminal results in output like:
raku -v
Welcome to ๐‘๐š๐ค๐ฎ๐๐จโ„ข v2020.10.
Implementing the ๐‘๐š๐ค๐ฎโ„ข programming language v6.d.
Built on MoarVM version 2020.10.

However instead I am getting an error message from rakudo.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.run `sudo dnf update -refresh`
2.run `sudo dnf install rakudo`
3.run `rakudo -v`
Actual Results:

Hi thanks for the reporting and sorry for the bothering. I do not have the error of message with rakudo installation (rakudo 2023.05) and tested it with `raku -v` in my Fedora rawhide. I infered that the error maybe appeared, because rakudo package in fedora 37 and 38 is still in the 2023.04 version (rakudo 2023.05 being testing status) [1, 2], which moarvm and nqp is already in 2023.05. Maybe right now, you can grab and install the latest rakudo package form the koji build [3, 4], or enable fedora-testing repository, or wait for another a few days until rakudo 2023.05 package is stable. Next time, I will use Bodhi with BuildRootOverrides [5] build moarvm, nqp and rakudo packages so it can build one package that depends on another and push them to testing and stable status at the same time.

If its okay with you I might just wait for the packages to trickle down to stable. Thank you for addressing this so quickly!

Comment 3 Wesley 2023-06-27 01:36:30 UTC
I just updated to the newest version, it works great now, thank you again!
