if a newer version is needed for whatever version of Rakudo
you're working with.

(If you want to build Rakudo on top of an installed parrot, make sure
that the development files are also installed (C<make install-dev>
when installing parrot, or the C<parrot-devel> and C<libparrot-dev>
packages on Debian). Note that an installed parrot still has to
satisfy the minimum version requirement, so if you have an official
parrot release installed, chances are that you can only build the
corresponding Rakudo release on top of that, not the latest
development version.)

To run a Perl 6 program with Rakudo, issue a command like:

$ ./perl6 hello.pl
