I want to write a wxWidgets application in Perl 6. So I have a minimal Perl5 example that works and try to convert that to Perl 6
Perl5 
package YTDL::App;

use YTDL::Frame;
use base qw(Wx::App);
use strict;
sub OnInit {
  say "***";
  return 1;
}

1;

Perl 6 
use Wx:from<Perl5>;
use Wx::App:from<Perl5>;

class YTDL::App is Wx::App
{

  sub OnInit {
    say "***";
    return True;
  }
}

It sure looks right. However, the Perl 6 version complains about OnInit not returning true and the method OnInit is not called.
I don't know how to fix this.
