Package: rakudo Version: 0.1~2011.07-1 Severity: normal
It is my understanding from the documentation that simply typing 'perl6' on the command line should put me into interactive mode (based on http://rakudo.org/how-to-get-rakudo/). Instead I get the error message: PARROT VM: Could not load bytecode Could not load oplib `io_ops' So... it looks like something is missing. This was my install (note that this machine is running stable, not testing, so perhaps that is part of the problem..?): root@linux> apt-get install rakudo parrot-devel/testing Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Selected version '3.6.0-1' (Debian:testing [amd64]) for 'parrot-devel' The following extra packages will be installed: libparrot-dev libparrot2.0.0 libparrot3.6.0 parrot parrot-devel parrot-minimal Suggested packages: parrot-doc The following NEW packages will be installed: libparrot-dev libparrot2.0.0 libparrot3.6.0 parrot parrot-devel parrot-minimal rakudo all of which went perfectly smoothly.
