I?ve marked it as not recommended on the Racket installation guidance page: https://github.com/racket/racket/wiki/Installing-Racket


Package should be updated to latest release from https://download.racket-lang.org/releases/8.7/

Suggested: https://download.racket-lang.org/releases/8.7/installers/racket-8.7-src-builtpkgs.tgz 

Best regards
