Paket: perl6 (6.c-1)

Perl6 Compiler

Perl 6 is a programming language, member of the Perl family. Like Perl 5, her world-famous big sister, Perl 6 intends to carry forward the high ideals of the Perl community and is currently being developed by a team of dedicated and enthusiastic volunteers.

perl6 package is a meta package that aims to depend on a Perl6 compiler and Perl6 core modules. Currently this package depends only on a compiler (rakudo). Dependency on the perl6 modules shipped by rakudo-star will be added later once they are available on Debian.

Perl6 version number represents the version of the language specification. The version of the compiler is another matter.
