jjatria I don't really think the problem is SQL-fu related 10:04

lizmat I'm looking at the raku.land stats for 2025: it shows 502 would that be *new* modules first seen in 2025 ? 12:03
because looking at raku.land/recent?page=31, it looks like there have been at least 1500+ releases in 2025 ? 12:04

JRaspass jjatria ^^ 12:43

JRaspass The difference is /stats only counts unique dists, so multiple releases for a given dist only show up once, you should get the same total if you sum any of the 4 tables on /stats 03:21
So it's the year of the latest release of a given dist
lizmat ahhh... ok, thanks for the explanation! 09:03

JRaspass jjatria would either of you be coming to FOSDEM this year ? 22:14
16 Jan 2026
JRaspass I'm not, I really should go again one year, I've only been once before 07:42
patrickb Do tell when you go. I'd love to meet in person one day... 09:07
26 Jan 2026
jjatria I really wanted to go, but I don't think I'll be able to be there either :( 15:02
lizmat :-(

jjatria JRaspass would it be an idea to *not* list distributions that don't have a valid repo link ? 10:59

good point? 14:34
[16:32:56] <AlexDaniel> folks it'd be really nice if raku.land/ explained how to install modules
6 Apr 2026
david7832 From a semi-newbie perspective: Yes, some words on raku.land about how to install modules would be quite helpful. Or alternatively, add a link to a fitting page from the docs. Unfortunately there's currently no such page (i.e. one that gives a quick overview of installation and basic usage); all the pages about modules are pieces of the detailed 20:55
story.
As of now, the best one to link to would be docs.raku.org/language/using-modul...installing

lizmat hi... looks like fez is out of order for an indefinite amount of time 07:38
I'm thinking of setting up an alternative content delivery system a la p6c 07:39
hence my question: does the raku.land harvester also harvest the REA or not ?
jjatria JRaspass ^^ 07:41
if it does, then no action would be needed
if it doesn't, then maybe raku.land's harvester might need modification as well 07:42

eax_ how do i get a package from my GH repo to be listed on zef? i have visited the raku.land site and i have some local projects that i am now ready to publish publicly 02:05
never mind. i did more RTFMing ... thank you 03:51
wayland76 For the record: fez upload 04:24
:)
eax_ wayland76: thx for the tip 16:36

wayland76 No worries :) 01:05

wayland Is it possible to get the following distribution removed? Qwiratry:ver<0.10.0>:auth<zef:wayland> 06:16
It was supposed to be 0.0.10 (now released), but I messed up.
lizmat no, there isn't really, it's now in the world 07:24
and also: that's not up to raku.land
you might want to try "fez remove" if the dist has been recently uploaded 07:51
didn't work the last time I tried it
mind you, I've had similar issues, e.g. raku.land/zef:lizmat/paths 07:54

jjatria lizmat: hey, been out of things for a bit, but I'm coming back 11:26
What does "fez is out of order for an indefinite amount of time" mean? 😬 11:27
lizmat jjatria: good to hear, welcome back
well, that's been a while ago already, like 2 months :-) 11:28
it's been up since then :-)
jjatria Huzzah! 11:30
lizmat now that I have you on the horn: how difficult would it be to dedupe distributions that changed auth, but kept the same underlying repo? 11:31
"zef" comes to mind, as number 1, 2 and 3 of dists with the highest number of stars 11:32
JRaspass Oh using the repo as a signal they're the same, that's a good idea, without looking at the code I think that should be reasonably doable. And would definitely improve the UX, I guess we'd favour the fez version in search results? But also show the other if navigated to? Maybe show a link like, also on these ecosystems... hmm not sure. 12:24
lizmat fwiw, I would just use this on the popular dists list 12:27
on search results... well, there are many issues there 12:28
try searching for the "paths" distro :-)
it's listed on page 3 of search results :-) 12:29
jjatria Even for search results, I could see a future where distributions are grouped by repo 13:18
