Current version require bleeding edge rakudo

Works with

, but despite effort to make back-compatible, tests fail.

Unfortunately, docker file depends on 2024-10 and container image overwritten with non-passing version.

The currrent docker image at docker.io/finanalyst/rakuast-rakudoc-render uses the latest Rakudo and so works out of the box

If you've only tried running rakudo-star:latest locally on the same computer you've been working on for the past few months, it may be the case that you simply have a stale image.

Here's what I get when I re-pull the image.

You can pin to 2024.12, and also see other published image tags on Docker Hub https://hub.docker.com/_/rakudo-star/tags

That said, it is definitely worth it to have figured out a from source build from the ground up. Keep that Dockerfile around.

@dontlaugh ++ The test workflow seems to work well. It also highlights differences between the docker image and a raku-star latest.

I'm leaving this issue open for other early users
