Problem with vmmaker images

by Damien Cassou

Hi, the vmmaker image http://files.pharo.org/vm/src/spur/vmmaker-image.zip runs on top of Pharo 5 but with PharoV40.sources. The wget -O- get.pharo.org/vm50 downloads PharoV50.sources and not PharoV40.sources. This means scripts using the vmmaker-image need to be fixed to download PharoV40.sources manually. -- Damien Cassou http://damiencassou.seasidehosting.st "Success is the ability to go from one failure to another without losing enthusiasm." --Winston Churchill

[Pharo5] New PharoV50.sources

by Marcus Denker

Hi, Was with every release, we have created a new .sources file. It is available at http://files.pharo.org/sources/ The latest Pharo5 (50750) now uses this. ZeroConf and the builds have been updated to include this file. Please test and tell us if you see any problems. (And we should really simplify the .sources/.changes story for Pharo6â¦.) Marcus

Re: [Pharo-dev] About PharoInProgress book

by Esteban A. Maringolo

Damien: One thing I noticed with the new PDF rendering is that the code listings does not appear in the order they are in the Pillar file, so I can't be sure that a code block will follow a certain paragraph, hence I can't say "in the following example code", because the example might have appeared three paragraphs ago. Can that be avoided? And if not... how can I "link" or add a reference to such code block? Regards! Esteban A.
