Ideally we should have a script which do all this stuff so we can always generate from the last version. This is possible, I may look at it for PBE2 :) Laurent. > Stef >

I hosted it on the gforge. Now we can also put it in github. I would prefer to not maintain several versions. Laurent how many links did you have to fix? Stef

[Pharo-project] Monticello can't load a simple project in PharoCore1.2 or 1.3

by Damien Cassou

http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=4229 Try to execute the following in a PharoCore: Gofer new url: 'http://www.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/hirschfeld/squeaksource/SwaUtilities'; package: 'Animations'; load (you don't need Gofer, you can also use the MC browser directly). It looks like Monticello manages to install the package correctly, but then the image is frozen and CPU runs hot. The problem appears in MCPackageLoader>>basicload between the following 2 lines: methodAdditions do: [:each | each installMethod]. methodAdditions do: [:each | each notifyObservers]. And when I say between, I really mean between. The line execute just fine, but then the CPU runs hot and image freezes.
