Would be nice if it were so simple, but:

Having removed ~/.racket, try:

$ git clone https://github.com/cwebber/racket-linkeddata.git
$ cd racket-linkeddata/linkeddata

Likewise, Gregor and Raart do not install:

$ mv ~/.racket ~/.racket-borked
$ raco pkg install gregor   # lots of errors during install
