It is possible to install, custom raku compiled #17

You can install raku

rakubrew build[-rakudo] [] [||]

from branch or sha directly, but it should be possible to install from your custom fork, or custom directory.

how can this be achieved?

Rakubrew currently doesn't have the ability to build from custom forks/directories. Rakubrew has a functionality to register a custom installation and then manage it though. To do so you need to build and install your fork manually (basically ./Configure.pl && make install) and then rakubrew register my-fork /path/to/the/custom/forks/install/dir. Does that help?

thanks @patrickbkr , for the detailed instructions I will give it a try, I didn't get the register functionality
