# 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.

# Cache key has a `-rakudo-only-v2` suffix to invalidate any
# pre-v2 caches that included stale zef module state under

# `zef install` to short-circuit ("All candidates are
# currently installed") on a hit, which skipped
# Build.rakumod and left `~/.local/share/Notcurses-Native/`
# unstaged → dlopen failed at test time.

# (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.
