I installed via rakudobrew (`rakudobrew build glr`), but have no `panda` in my ~/.rakudobrew/bin directory.

Ah. glr is 1) a very recent in-development branch that 2) only includes the compiler so 3) panda (the module installer) isn't included and 4) it may not work even if you download and manually install a copy of it.

You might want to visit the freenode IRC channel #perl6 to straighten things out.[1] In the meantime I'm going to install the glr branch and see what I find. It might be a few hours (at most a day I think) before I can get back to you.

Ok. Command-line history/editing works now. I wiped out ~/.rakudobrew and started over:

    rakudobrew build moar
    rakudobrew build-panda
    panda install Linenoise
Thanks.

If you type rakudobrew by itself, the usage shows it is capable of a "rakudobrew build-panda" which is probably a good place to start. Panda is the Perl 6 package manager, in case that wasn't clear.

Thanks, kbenson; missed that. Works now!
