Yes, that was it. `sudo raco setup` built the .zo's, which were missing. I guess the my question would be why do i have to run that?
Here is the recipe for what i did (on a current debian testing system): 1) curl -OL 'https://mirror.racket-lang.org/installers/8.1/racket-8.1-x86_64-linux-cs.sh' 2) sudo sh racket-8.1-x86_64-linux-cs.sh --in-place --dest "/opt/Racket 8.1" 3) Set "/etc/Racket 8.1/etc/config.rkt" contents to: --- #hash((build-stamp . "") (catalogs . ("https://download.racket-lang.org/releases/8.1/catalog/"; #f)) (doc-search-url . "https://download.racket-lang.org/releases/8.1/doc/local-redirect/index.html";) (pkgs-search-dirs . ("/opt/Racket 8.1/share/pkgs-system" #f)) (links-search-files . ("/opt/Racket 8.1/share/pkgs-system/links.rktd" #f))) --- 4) sudo /opt/Racket\ 8.1/bin/raco pkg install --scope-dir "/opt/Racket 8.1/share/pkgs-system" readline-gpl rash 5) /opt/Racket\ 8.1/bin/racket -l rash/repl The last command takes a long time every time. The docs and zos and bin files are missing. I run `/opt/Racket\ 8.1/bin/raco setup rash`. Now all docs bins zos in place and (5) runs quickly. Why? I don't think i'm going to use this method anymore, but if i did then should i `raco setup` the other packages (rash deps) too?
