docs/module_management.md reads:

  When we install a distribution, we do the following:

  1. Create the `repo.lock` file; if it already exists, fail.

So maybe the repo.lock file should not exist at all in rakudo binary package.
And maybe it's irrelevant for read-only /usr because user won't be able to
install any Perl6 distribution at all.

What worries me is precomp directory that will need to regenerate its content
when updating a distribution that is used by an already installed distribution.
If it won't be be possible to prebuild in Koji, there will need to be some
postscript in each RPM package or I don't know.
