That might help for other cases, but not this one. As far as I
understand, the file is at

  /usr/share/perl6/tools/install-dist.p6
                  ^^^^^^^

but /usr/share/perl6/rakudo-helper.pl looks for it at

  /usr/share/perl6/install-dist.p6
                  ^

So from my point of view that bug can be fixed by adding "tools/" to
the script path at line 43 of /usr/share/perl6/rakudo-helper.pl.
