@niner I understood the request as for the website to have a note about this, rather than suggesting that package installation itself emits one.

Sorry, I misunderstood the problem. Debian 10 is my OS also, but I use
the more often updated version ('rakudo-pkg' by @nxadm) on the
website. Once you set it up (very easy to do) you treat it like any
other Debian package but enjoy the latest Rakudo with the 'raku'
executable.
Check out instructions here:
https://nxadm.github.io/rakudo-pkg/
Enjoy!

I installed rakudo by using apt on Debian 10. There is no explanation of
how to run it. A short type raku or try perl6 might be useful.
Have you tried this in a terminal window:
$ raku
It is not a GUI program. What do you get when you install, say, R?

I was doing it on a Debian 10 system so the executable is perl6. But I think some kind of short message there to let you know what to do after installing it might be good. Having installed rakudo, I think that's what I would be most likely to type.

How should rakudo print a message on installation when it's not even run? Package installation is a process very similar to extracting a zip archive. You wouldn't expect the files in that zip archive to give you any messages. It also wouldn't make much sense, since installation can be done fully automated and often is. Just imagine packages giving you messages when you install Linux and hundreds or even thousands of packages get installed. What point would be there for telling you anything?
Current rakudo contains a binary also named rakudo, so there shouldn't be any confusion anymore anyway.
