Rakudo Star = Rakudo plus Perl 6 modules. It's a distribution of modules with a particular version of rakudo and probably doesn't fit easily into the RPM model.
If you aren't including the Perl 6 modules it's not Rakudo Star but plain "Rakudo" and should be named as such. and Fedora calling it Star will confuse and mislead people.
