nine ugexe: this would be much easier if your arguments didn't make as much sense :) 06:41

ugexe I also suspect this would affect installing 2 different versions of the same distribution. Consider two installed distributions Foo:ver<1> and Foo:ver<2>, both of which provide Foo::Bar and `use Foo::Bar` inside Foo.pm - if I `use Foo:ver<1>` it would be expected that `use Foo::Bar` inside of Foo.pm (for v1) loads Foo::Bar from the same distribution and not from a possibly newer or older distribution 18:38
of the same name
if I `use Foo:ver<1>` in some script^ 18:39
mst ugexe: I've always wondered whether within-dist links need some sort of 'use Foo::mine' 18:42
ugexe mst: I had that same thought today 18:45

nine mst: I wonder if there are any ugly workarounds left in your Alien::Rakudo package now that the prefixes are separated? 19:31
mst nine: no idea, I need to finally get back to kicking that 19:32
nine: I take it rakudo's Configure now has --prefix= --moar-prefix= --nqp-prefix= ?
nine It has a (documented) --with-nqp. It gets the moar-prefix from nqp. 19:33
mst I am going to have to find out how much of that works then :) 19:43
(my first guess would be "most of it, for most people, and then I'm going to snap it anyway")
nine is looking forward to that 19:46
mst it is totally at the top of my list of OSS technical stuff to do 19:47
nine Well I do hope that your workarounds can be much less hideous now :) 19:48
