Hi Max, Have you tried to reproduce this problem in other Win7 computer than the slave? I can try in a laptop I have at home.

Then I can skip reading the paper and get a feel for how hard it will be to port to GemStone:) Well, the point is not to replace metacello but to go towards a per package metadata description allowing some flexibility with the introduction of virtual packages. This will allow, in a first time, to set up a package repository and more important, a web site on top of it. In a second time, I also want to enable more flexibility in expressing dependencies constraints (eg. > 2.0, 3.*, etc.). To achieve that, you need a very performant dependency solver and I would like to reuse linux ones (it has be done for ocaml by example) through CUDF (check http://mancoosi.org/) For now, I implemented a simple solver for static dependency constraints (=1.2). I checked Metacello implementation and it looked to me that approaches are a bit too far to be able to reuse the whole code. For sure, it is not as robust as Metacello is, because you enhanced it for years. What I want now, is to experiment (let's name it) Cargo Package Manager to see if it fits the needs. Pharo bootstrap is the first use case. What I would like, is that, at the end, the dependency solver get out of Pharo and that we use already existing linux ones. What will stay into Pharo are packages metadata and the way to load a list of packages.

Hi Dale, Le 11 oct. 2015 Ã 00:40, Dale Henrichs a Ã©crit : > Christophe, > > I still don't have a lot of time to read the paper and try to understand what you are trying to accomplish, but I am curious how you think "package dependencies" will play with git-based projects? Dependencies are not tied to a Version Control System (monticello, git or whatever). Dependencies are a package concern. With a released version, at the end, we need to fech source code from a VCS (as we do not have a shared binary format): these steps are already done by MC*Repository classes, including git. > In git-based repositories I don't think you have the same type of dependency issues that one might have with monticello repositories --- In a monticello repository you have a whole range of possible package versions to pick from, but in a git-based repository the range of package versions is fixed to those that are committed together so the packages that are meant to work together are committed together. Git allows you to easily reference a set of packages working together. It works fine for packages of the same repository but you get back the problem since you deal with packages of other repositories. > In the bootstrap scenario, you would only have one version per package to choose from, so the packages that are meant to work together are committed together .... For the first step of the bootstrap, it will work but not for next steps where we will split the Pharo image into different projects. > I guess I don't know what you mean when you say: >> we want to decouple a released version of a package from the working copy of the package version description (implies the creation of a package repository + a web interface on top of it to promote/search packages). > Perhaps a description of the problem being solved would help me understand. When you develop, you have a working copy of a package meta-data, including dependencies. Actually, there are current dependencies of the package. You could avoid to refer to specific versions and just point to the package name as your working image should already have packages loaded. (kind of configurationOf baseline) When you release a version (strong act), then you "freeze" the current working version of the package meta-data and you publish it somewhere (a package repository) so that it becomes available to others. This metadata is not source cod, is easily accessible by tools and it becomes easy to build a web site on top of this to search / promote packages. So, the problems I'm trying to solve there are: do not be tied to a VCS and do not need to load code to "play" with packages metadata offer a central place to easily find the package you need (for example, java has http://central.sonatype.org/, php has https://packagist.org/, etc.) do not mix preoccupations: I do not want to have metadata of all released versions + working copy of a package at the same place Christophe
