Hi Daniel, I've just started on making the new Rakudo Star (2020.08.1), and I've also noticed some slight readline issues. While I respect Jeff's work, time does pass, and things break. I think the most respect we can show is to continue the work he started. With regards to updating it, in Raku we have a :auth<> tag on the modules, or just the auth key in the META6.json. You can alter this to whatever (it just needs to be a string, though personally I think this ought to have some standards), and you can upload a module with the same name to CPAN afterwards. By default, zef selects the highest version, but people can opt to use another author's variant by specifying an :auth<> themselves. As for Rakudo Star inclusion, I pull all the modules directly from git, or download tarballs over HTTP. All I need is a URL to fetch the correct version from. If you could give me this, I will update the readline package used in Rakudo Star for the next release. -- With kind regards, Patrick Spek www: https://www.tyil.nl/ mail: p.s...@tyil.nl pgp: 1660 F6A2 DFA7 5347 322A 4DC0 7A6A C285 E2D9 8827 social: https://soc.fglt.nl/tyil git: https://home.tyil.nl/git
