Description
<masak> "PackFile header failed during unpack" <masak> I just want to emphasize how much that error message, meaning "wrong Parrot for this Rakudo", sucks. <jnthn> masak: That probably needs to be a Parrot chnage, since it's before Rakudo gets chance to take control and have its way with things. <jnthn> masak: But I agree it's not clear at all to 99% of people. <masak> I'll see about submitting a parrotbug.
