There is a difference in gcc and perl5. A C compiler is needed to build each and every thing out there. What is mean is: is bash version n-1 needed to build bash version n? I believe the answer is no. On Thu, Aug 25, 2016 at 1:21 PM, Patrick R. Michaud wrote: > On Thu, Aug 25, 2016 at 10:37:45AM

It's going to be easier to demonstrate stand-alone Perl 6 on Windows than an *nix machine. If you remove Perl from them, the result will probably be a broken system. On 8/25/16, Bennett Todd wrote: > Bootstrapping is funny that way. > > Besides the tools in the environment, you've got to have at

Bootstrapping is funny that way. Besides the tools in the environment, you've got to have at least 1GB RAM available to build perl6. I can compile it within the Gnuroot Debian app on my Nexus 5, which has 2GB total real ram, so it has enough even inside the Android app. I can't similarly buil

Simplification of Rakudo's build process is an ongoing process, and I see progress all the time. Remember also that Rakudo is the most active and complete implementation of Perl 6, but that there can and should be other completely separate implementations. On Aug 25, 2016 1:37 PM, "Dipesh Sharma"

Figuring out the environment, and how to best fit into it, is tricky, wants a richly powerful programming language, like perl. Ideally one that's almost certainly already available. Someday, Perl6 will be that language.

Hi, Dependency on perl5 for building perl6 looks like a concern. It means that we can't have and environment with perl6, without perl5. I may be thinking too ahead, but isn't that the state we want perl6 to be in? Thanks, Dipesh On Wed, Aug 24, 2016 at 1:57 PM, Bennett Todd wrote: > Actually,
