compilation (2020.05) fails on openbsd (6.7 current)

[rwp0]

hello,

i have read the instructions installing the devel/p5-ExtUtils-Config dependency as instructed for the platform i'm building on:

doas pkg_add git p5-ExtUtils-Config

installing 2020.05, after fetching the rakudo-star tarball and extracting it, with rstar install on openbsd-current (6.7) (as indicated in the quickstart section):

Found /home/<user>/build/rakudo-star-2020.05/bin/moar version 2020.05, which is new enough.

Cleaning up ...

You can now use '/usr/local/bin/gmake' to build NQP.

After that, '/usr/local/bin/gmake test' will run some tests and

'/usr/local/bin/gmake install' will install NQP.

[2020-08-04T07:56:31] [ALERT] Build failed!

i believe it might be due to the make: make line not pointing to /usr/local/bin/gmake (port: devel/gmake) as can be seen from the compilation output.

if true, how do i modify the environment pointing at correct utilities (by their path) for compilation using the rstar utility?

ps. i have also noticed that rakudo, nqp, and moarvm are aleardy ported on openbsd, but as of now they are a bit older (2018.12), hence probably built directly with Configure.pl without using rstar.

https://github.com/rakudo/star/commit/54a1cb01d3cfd3c6df042a514e03dbfa939a6c5d should fix this issue.

54a1cb0 should fix this issue.

awesome, i can now confirm building successfully by cloning the repository (on -current)
