Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Remove perl6 packages.
Date: Tue, 20 Feb 2024 09:01:09 +0200
It's been about 5 years since these were added after FOSDEM 2019 and
while the packages may be able to be adjusted to build again there has
not been any mentions on the mailing lists about the packages in
probably 4 years, in the bug tracker for about 2 years, and the
language has even been renamed from perl6 to raku.

There is also bug#55179 which updates rakudo to the (then latest)
2022.04 version and also updated the now raku packages. After this patch
set I plan on applying the patches to update rakudo to 2022.04 (probably
with some minor alterations) and then maybe to a later version.  If
there is later interest in reviving the rakudo-build-system it's still
in the git history.

Efraim Flashner (3):
  gnu: Remove perl6 packages.
  guix: Remove rakudo-build-system.
  gnu: perl6.scm: Rename to rakudo.scm.
