I'm having trouble doing a build of raku from github. Could it be the INSTALL.txt file is out-of-date?
I was trying to build a "bleeding edge" Raku using the instructions here: https://github.com/rakudo/rakudo/blob/master/INSTALL.txt So I thought I'd just need to do this: cd /home/doom/End/Sys/Perl6/dev git clone git://github.com/rakudo/rakudo.git cd rakudo git pull perl Configure.pl --gen-moar --gen-nqp --backends=moar make pwd /home/doom/End/Sys/Perl6/dev/rakudo ./perl6 --version But actually, there is no ./perl6 here. And I don't see a "Generating" message for it: [...] +++ Generating rakudo-gdb-m +++ Generating rakudo-lldb-m +++ Generating rakudo-valgrind-m +++ Generating perl6-gdb-m +++ Generating perl6-lldb-m +++ Generating perl6-valgrind-m Trying something that looks close, I just get this an error: ./perl6-gdb-m --version Unhandled exception: While looking for '/home/doom/End/Sys/Perl6/dev/rakudo/perl6.moarvm': no such file or directory That file doesn't exist... so despite the --gen-moar option, it wasn't created? sudo updatedb locate perl6.moarvm /home/doom/End/Sys/Perl6/rakudo-star-2019.03/rakudo/perl6.moarvm /home/doom/End/Sys/Perl6/rakudo-star-2020.01/rakudo/perl6.moarvm /root/rakudo/share/perl6/runtime/perl6.moarvm The INSTALL.txt describes a --with-moar option, so I thought I might try building with an existing moarvm: cd /home/doom/End/Sys/Perl6/dev/rakudo perl Configure.pl --with-moar=/home/doom/End/Sys/Perl6/rakudo-star-2020.01/rakudo/perl6.moarvm --gen-nqp --backends=moar make But that just errors out: Unknown option: with-moar
