disbot8 <librasteve> @jubilatious1_98524 - you will note that the notable6 robot did not acknowledge your "weekly:" command - for a few weeks now it has only worked if you use on the IRC side of the bridge - so I will not see it when I run the weekly summary - please can you raise an issue for this with the bot maintainers (personally I run IRCcloud (an app) in parallel with Discord but I understand this is inconvenient) 06:51

tbrowder hi, i've been blathering on the beginner chan by mistake. i can use "mkdir" here but not on my local host. 11:58
m: my $d = mkdir "t"; 11:59
camelia ( no output )
tbrowder on my host i "no such method 'mkdir' for string "t/data" 12:00
disbot8 <librasteve> raku -e 'mkdir "t";' 12:02
<librasteve> raku -e 'mkdir "t/data";'
<librasteve> ^^ these both work on my machine
<nahita3882> error suggests you are doing "t/data".mkdir 12:03
<nahita3882> mkdir $str or $str.&mkdir or $str.IO.mkdir works 12:05
tbrowder mine too, but i'm trying to use it inside a raku test script. i know i've done it in the past, but maybe i have to use /tmp or a module that creates a temp file 12:06
trying another tweak... 12:08
hm, got it to work *without* the assignment. why would that work here and not on my host? 12:13
this worked on my host: mkdir $path 12:14
but this did not: my $dir = mkdir $path 12:15
rakudo 2025.06 12:16
m: raku -v
camelia ===SORRY!=== Error while compiling <tmp>
Undeclared routines:
raku used at line 1
v used at line 1
tbrowder anyway, mine is 2025.06.1 12:18

[Coke] (different hosts) - if you're not doing the equivalent of "mkdir -p" you might have an existing intermediate directory on one machine (that works) and not the other (that doesn't) 17:03
(or permissions on one of them)
ah, scratch that, mkdir says it does -p semantics by default. So maybe permissions? 17:04
also, if there's an exception, you should get some details in the message body:

ugexe tbrowder>on my host i "no such method 'mkdir' for string "t/data" 17:07
<nahita3882> error suggests you are doing "t/data".mkdir
[Coke] ah, I missed that and focused on "works on one, not on another". yah, you need to .IO that first. 17:08
