[Pkg-parrot-devel] Bug#641213: Consider addind a parrot-runtime package

[Alessandro Ghedini]

Source: parrot
Version: 3.6.0-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

As discussed at [0], please add a separate package providing the runtime
libraries needed by some languages, currently installed by parrot-devel,
so that they don't need to Depends on parrot-devel.

I've attached a patch, feel free to change the package name if you don't
like it, and to add/remove files if you need to (I've moved all the files
under /usr/lib/parrot/3.6.0/library).

I've already tried to build and run rakudo with this change, and everything
seems to work fine.

Cheers
