I'm trying to import a Perl5 module I really like https://metacpan.org/pod/Data::Printer using advice from the manual page https://modules.perl6.org/dist/Inline::Perl5:cpan:NINE
using a very simple script
use Inline::Perl5;
my $p5 = Inline::Perl5.new;
$p5.use('Data::Printer');
but then I get this error:
Unsupported type NativeCall::Types::Pointer<94774650480224> in p5_to_p6
in method p5_to_p6_type at /usr/lib/perl6/site/sources/130449F27E85303EEC9A19017246A5ED249F99E4 (Inline::Perl5) line 298

what is going wrong here? How can I import this perl5 module into perl6? I would also be happy if there is a similar way to get the colored/tabbed output in Perl6 like I would get from Data::Printer
because I can't find it.
EDIT: This is solved here: how to load Perl5's Data::Printer in Perl6?
