I missed the detail that the compiler ID even changes for different architecture.. which may not be good.
Is it possible for us to slightly modify the postinst script to recompile the cache locally when the compiler id mismatches? The fallback script rakudo-helper.pl can at least make sure a raku-* package is still functional even without a matching compiler ID. In that case we don't have to add the compiler ID to the virtual package name, and every architecture can track the same and consistent virtual package dependency.
