Cool.

I had a brief look at the changes in rakudo-helper.pl and
dh_raku_install, and the logic makes sense to me.

Some random tests:
- replaced /usr/share/perl6/rakudo-helper.pl with the version from
  git
- rebuilt dh-raku from git [0]
- rebuilt perl6-readline against the updated dh-raku:
  log:
  	Installing perl6-readline.dh-raku.list in debian/perl6-readline/usr/lib/perl6/vendor
  debc:
    ./usr/lib/perl6/vendor/perl6-readline.dh-raku.list
- installed new perl6-readline
  output:
  line: 0 0 134
  line: 0 0 134
  line: 0 0 134
  line: 0 0 134
  line: 0 0 134
  line: 0 0 134
  (could be prettier :))
- `raku examples/echo.pl6' works \o/
- a comparison of /usr/lib/perl6 before and after only shows
  +/usr/lib/perl6/vendor/perl6-readline.dh-raku.list
- downgraded perl6-readline to 0.1.5-2 from the archive
  /usr/lib/perl6/vendor/perl6-readline.dh-raku.list is removed
  the echo example still works
- reinstalled perl6-zef (to test a different perl6 package)
  precompilation kicks in
  no changes in /usr/lib/perl6
  `zef --help' still works


So, hm, yeah, I guess I don't find any obvious issues :)


Cheers,
gregor
