Build configurations for different OSes

Directory structure

At present the directories in the project are laid out like so:

linux/
    arch/
        moarvm/
        nqp/
        rakudo/
    debian/
        moarvm/
        nqp/
        rakudo/
    fedora/

This is to say that various Linux distributions are collected under the linux/ directory. Under each distribution's directory are directories for the three projects required to build Rakudo Perl 6, moarvm, nqp and rakudo. Within each directory there will be a Makefile one can use to build the given project.

It is planned that over time one can add more operating systems than only Linux as well as to improve the list of supported Linux distributions and the overall structure so as to easily build all required packages for a given distribution with a simple make-like command.

Debian Linux

To build the Debian packages, simply change into the linux/debian directory and run:

$ make all

This will build the moarvm, nqp and rakudo projects, placing the generated .deb files in /tmp/<project>_debuild/.

Arch Linux

Currently in development. PKGBUILD files have been added for moarvm, nqp and rakudo.
