[perl #126883] [LTA] error message mentions parameter “$slip” (1.map: { Slip })

This was fixed in https://github.com/rakudo/rakudo/commit/502b886e8d14dbd51b5dc201309f9f8bb0a4c3e0 Not sure why it's still not closed. Closing. On 2015-12-12 20:45:06, lloyd.fo...@gmail.com wrote: > test: > https://github.com/perl6/roast/commit/c205f71781a29a456349a791fdf912d6955fe50f > > On Sat,

[perl #126757] [LTA] error message talks about ~ but there is no ~ in my code (33..126 .pick.chr)

As far as I know, this ticket is impossible to resolve. At least not with what we have now in rakudo. To produce an error message that is more precise we'll need more information than just a line number, but we don't have that during the run time. See https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=12

[perl #126802] Shaped arrays with fractional sizes (my @a[0.5])

The first part of the ticket was resolved in https://github.com/rakudo/rakudo/commit/46dca95547949bc3d791efb2620d362a68176fdc So you can no longer create an array using 0.5. But you can still create an array with any fractional value that's larger than 1, and it will blow up later. ♥

In this particular case it means you cannot write web scrapers using rakudo.
