Install zef

Opened this issue · 7 comments

I'm on Linux Mint (based on Debian) with the rakudo package installed (2022.02-1 amd64). I would like to use zef, but there is no /opt/rakudo-pkg/bin/install-zef, nor is anything like it present in the installed files for the rakudo package. Is there any other package I need to install, or any other way to install zef?

Can you double check? I see it in the package:

# dpkg -L rakudo-pkg | grep zef
/opt/rakudo-pkg/bin/install-zef
/opt/rakudo-pkg/bin/zef-as-root

Feel free to reopen if not found. Checked on ubuntu and debian with the latest package.

apt search rakudo only shows the package rakudo. And dpkg -L rakudo |grep zef does not return anything.

Linux Mint 21.1, based on Ubuntu 22.04.

Ok, I understand the problem now. There is probably no (correct) mint alias in the CloudSmith repo. Debugging a little to ask the to create the necessary aliases at their end.

I created a support case asking to create the needed aliases. If not I could add a linux mint build myself, but it seems unnecessary as it's built on ubuntu and compatible with it (way closer dan debian and ubuntu).

Hi @pepa65,

Can you check if the problem is fixed? Cloudsmith added the needed link in the repos.

Sorry, I'm new to Rakudo. What would be the best way to check? Maybe a short program??
