If you are comfortable installing your own software from a source, try the following (update the URL of the last Rakudo star from https://rakudo.perl6.org/downloads/star/ ):
wget -O rakudo-star-2017.07.tar.gz https://rakudo.perl6.org/downloads/star/rakudo-star-2017.07.tar.gz
tar -xvf rakudo-star-2017.07.tar.gz
cd rakudo-star-2017.07
perl Configure.pl --backend=moar --gen-moar
make
make rakudo-test
make install
Then add the following paths to yours $PATH(replacing /path/towith the actual path, of course):
/path/to/rakudo-star-2017.07/install/bin
/path/to/rakudo-star-2017.07/install/share/perl6/site/bin
:
set this_module rakudo-star
set this_version 2017.07
set this_root /path/to/$this_module/$this_module-$this_version/install
set this_docs http://rakudo.org/documentation/
proc ModulesHelp { } {
global this_module this_version this_root this_docs
puts stderr "$this_module $this_version"
puts stderr "****************************************************"
puts stderr " $this_docs"
puts stderr "****************************************************\n"
}
module-whatis "Set up environment for $this_module $this_version"
prepend-path PATH $this_root/bin
prepend-path PATH $this_root/share/perl6/site/bin
