I'm afraid i've got rather lost in this thread.
As an after thought after seeing other posts on the issue, I think more than a generic warning that "may break the image" the Monticello comments and/or a simple explanation on the reasons and affected packages *before* the update starts with an option to proceed or abort is much in need.
Yes, maybe. Then thing is that I am not sure in which cases it would break. Only in overrides? How many overrides do we have from external pacakges in Core stuff? I have no idea.
I think given that we are at a very early stage of building the Pharo image from PharoCore i.e Metacello just coming on etc, we should simplify the concerns above.
Basically we should only build Pharo on top of a known PharoCore. Just because packages don't contain overrides does not imply that moving the core image will break packages on top. Don't offer such a feature, and then worry about what will happen.
Part of the Pharo build script should set a flag that prevents system update in the short term. Longer term we should switch the available update mechanism to #loadLatest on the ConfigurationOfPharo. There is then one System update feature, but different implementation in Pharo vs PharoCore.
So the vote is for disabled for now?
cheers, Mike
