That's the purpose of the permanent tracker. As soos as rakudo 2021.12 hits 
unstable, the old Raku modules become uninstallable. 

In theory, this situation is detected by the tracker which will trigger a 
rebuild of all impacted module.

This is still to be tested in practice.

ok, that's good to know.

I guess that next step is to upload these 3 packages and see what happens with 
the modules.

All the best
