That could be years in the future. It needs to be fixed now, or remove
the Rakudo packages from Debian. Really, it's pretty straightforward: if
they intend Rakudo to be packaged and distributed, there are some very
basic principles about software distribution they need to respect. I
suggest having them read:

http://wiki.debian.org/UpstreamGuide

Especially the section on dependencies.
