Sam thank you. Your suggestions mostly worked. At least I was able to unbork my installation. Steps taken: - install the regular `rackunit` ⇒ still reported a bunch of errors re missing typet/rackunit - raco pkg update --clone extra-pkgs/rackunit ⇒ took its sweet time, also produce similar errors
Code runs and appear to pull the right rackunit collection and I no longer see "regular" rackunit-* inside share/pkgs. Now about that typed/rackunit module that other dependents fail to locate. That's def part of rackunit repo which is installed as cloned and indeed rackunit/rackunit-typed declare itself as part of the `typed` collection, so `typed/rackunit` should be available and yet: - raco fc -i typed/rackunit ⇒ fails to find it Not a blocker for me but somewhat surprising. Thank you again for your help Sam.
