Error running Pugs tests

[Ovid]

Hi all,

Just built GHC 6.6 from source (oh joy!) and upgraded to Pugs Version:
6.2.13 (r14881). After building it I did a "make install" and in the
pugs directory, I tried this:

pugs $ pugs t/general/basic.t
pugs: user error (***
Unexpected "Str"
expecting "\\", ":", "*", parameter name or ")"
at /usr/local/lib/perl6/Test.pm line 34, column 21
t/general/basic.t line 1, column 1)

However, it works when I do this:

pugs $ pugs -Iblib6/lib t/general/basic.t
1..15
ok 1 - Welcome to Pugs!
ok 2 - undef
ok 3 - unless
ok 4 - list assignment 1
ok 5 - list assignment 2
not ok 6 - my() returns LHS # TODO
# Failed (TODO) test (t/general/basic.t line 26, column 1-60)
# Actual: undef
ok 7 - if without parens
ok 8 - for without parens
ok 9 - while
ok 10 - last
ok 11 - next
ok 12 - 12.eval
ok 13 - ?? !!
ok 14 - { my $_ = 1; $_ }
ok 15 - \# We've got fun and games!

I don't have pugs here at work (or time for it, really), but I was
wondering why I appear to be getting a syntax error if I don't include
blib6/lib? That strikes me as very strange. Can anyone else reproduce
this? If not, I can dig into my system and see what's up.

Cheers,
Ovid

You have an old version of Test.pm (and likely, other modules too) from
an earlier 'make install'. Better wipe out your /usr/local/lib/perl6
and any other traces.

Thanks. That fixed it. Now for some fun:
