In particular, this prereq in ConfigurationOfGlamour caused it: baseline20beta4: spec spec for: #common do: [ *snip* spec package: 'Morphic-MorphTreeWidget' with: [ spec repository: 'http://squeaksource.com/Momo10']; *snip* ] As I said, since MorphTreeWidget is already part of 1.1Core, this caused an older version of the widget to load. Since Settings Browser uses methods found in the newer version in Core, loading Glamour caused it to DNU when I tried opening a Settings Browser.

They have 460 green tests :) Strange, for me it lead to errors in 1.1 because: - It depends on Momo10 (MorphTreeMorph) - This has been integrated into Morphic in 1.1 - Loading Torch overrode the code in Morphic with code from Momo rep. - The "old" tree was missing methods (rowInset:) used by the settings browser, so that broke.

Hi andreas >> Absolutely. One thing that took me by surprise is the response in the Pharo world.

This is since we managed Squeak3.9 with packages (and in fact even before - our ENVY experience back in 99) that we know that package without a map are not working well. >> Instead it appears to be ... well, I'm actually not exactly sure. Seems like a mixture of feeling threatened and NIH. >From my point of view I do not really care. If squeak use metacello good for you. We know what we want to try and we will try it. We worked and discussed with dale since ESUG last year about that and now that 1.1 is getting out this is the right time to pass in production mode. > If you look at it objectively, my proposal is extremely similar to what Pharo uses, and I've explicitly mentioned that it was inspired by Pharo's use of MetacelloRepository.
