$ raku --version
Welcome to Rakudo™ v2022.04.

Looks like the fix is to remove or update the pinned version

Can't reproduce, sorry It's in the local cache in my case, so I guess that it will have to be fixed anyway. It fails for a different reason, anyway, and it's probably related to all the changes in CUR in the latest releases.

[JJ]

Also, the version in HEAD has File::Temp 0.0.8+ I guess I'll have to release.

[coke]

Tried via git clone of master, seems ok, so this should be closable post-release.

What do we need to do to cut a release?

Problem is, Documentable is not working any more with the current release. And since this is being superseded by the dynamic site, I don't think it's a priority to fix it and/or release a new version.

[coke]

FYI:

• the new dynamic site is also using Documentable
• this breakage predates the last PR merge in raku/doc

I'll work around it for now.

?? Lost me here. There's not much Documentable is doing other than generating a static site.

* this breakage predates the last PR merge in raku/doc

Right, and the fix was too, but the moment we realized we needed to do a release was after documentable stopped working. It's not worth the while to do a release when we know it's going to fail. Workaround is to use current git clone with old Raku, 2022.03. At any rate, if it's really going to be used it might be worth the while to give it a bit of love (in some other issue, probably).
