The rakudo/star repository contains the tools needed to build a Rakudo Star tarball. The repo itself doesn't contain the compiler and/or module sources directly. You don't (and shouldn't) manually clone the Rakudo and module repos from GitHub, there's a Makefile in the repo that does that for you. See the tools/star/release_guide.pod file for the steps needed to build and test a Rakudo Star distribution. I've already done most of the steps needed to build the 2013.04 distribution, my latest candidate is downloadable from: http://pmichaud.com/sandbox/rakudo-star-2013.04-rc2.tar.gz The "make modules-test" part is failing for me in this candidate, the failures I'm seeing are: Testing modules/perl6-File-Tools... t/01-file-find.t ...... ok t/02-shell-command.t .. 1/12 Failed to remove the file 't/dir2/foodir/not_a_dir': unlink failed: No such file or directory in block at src/gen/CORE.setting:8121 in sub unlink at src/gen/CORE.setting:8117 in block at /home/pmichaud/p6/star/work/rakudo-star-2013.04/install/lib/parrot/5.2.0/languages/perl6/lib/Shell/Command.pm:34 in method reify at src/gen/CORE.setting:5737 in method reify at src/gen/CORE.setting:5632 in method gimme at src/gen/CORE.setting:6053 in method eager at src/gen/CORE.setting:6032 in sub rm_rf at /home/pmichaud/p6/star/work/rakudo-star-2013.04/install/lib/parrot/5.2.0/languages/perl6/lib/Shell/Command.pm:26 in block at t/02-shell-command.t:28 t/02-shell-command.t ..
