Trying to run panda's bootstrap​:

$ ./bootstrap.pl
===SORRY!===
Failed to create directory '/usr/local/share/perl6/site/precomp' with mode '0o777'​: Failed to mkdir​: 13

So this is apparently a new directory that fails to get made during 'make install', like the others before it. "Fortunately" this problem isn't new, so the fix should be simple.

Please retest with current nom. The branch that gets us rid of locks for reading just landed. A short test here seemed positive.

Another patch just landed that makes sure we create those precomp directories at make install time. With this (and another fix for DESTDIR support) I could successfully create RPM packages that install rakudo system wide. I can run perl6 and use the bundled modules as unpriviledged user.

More than a month went by without feedback and I'm quite sure the issue has been fixed, so I'm closing the bug. Please re-open if it still persists anyway.
