# Reusable workflow: verify the linux-aarch64-glibc prebuilt
# installs + loads on aarch64.
#
# Raku/setup-raku@v1 has no aarch64 Linux prebuilt, so we
# source-build Rakudo via rakubrew. First run is ~10-20 min;
# subsequent runs hit actions/cache and skip.

        # Two dirs:
        #   1. shims/ — rakubrew's dispatch wrappers for raku/zef
        #      (created by `rakubrew build` + `rehash`).
        #   2. install/share/perl6/site/bin — where `zef install`
        #      puts module-provided binaries (App::Prove6's
        #      `prove6` lands here). rakubrew doesn't auto-rehash
        #      after each `zef install`, so binaries installed
        #      via zef after the build aren't shimmed unless we
        #      explicitly run `rakubrew rehash` (which we'd need
        #      to do after every zef install). Adding the site-bin
        #      dir directly to PATH avoids that maintenance burden
        #      and matches how setup-raku configures PATH for
        #      lanes that don't use rakubrew.
