Hi all,
First, Peter. Actually, this package is meant for those people using Snapcraft to install packages. It's like with docker, you need docker to make it work. Actually I made this not to make it the default way to distribute pharo, but just because they asked it in the university, it is the default way they want to install new packages in here...
I guessed as much, but I am still confused about the sudo requirement for installation of new snaps; e.g. if I asked our university admin to install snapcraft, it still wouldn't help us (or other teachers), because they don't have sudo priviledges. (And although an exception can be added from snapcraft, I am not sure whether the installation process itself is sandboxed.) Is this correct?
I guess so... But I just know the basics I learnt while building the package. BTW, I just enhanced some things: https://github.com/guillep/pharo-snapcraft - fix the typos - fixed build dependencies to make it work in a clean linux box (added cmake, unzip, wget...) - added a travis job to validate that the package can be built ;)
Thanks, Peter
Alistair, - thanks for the typo. Maybe we can force wget as a build dependency? Like that it will not fail like that ;) - I'll fix the typos. However, next time could you just open a pull request? or make an issue? emails tend to get lost (specially in a
weekend
and with many answers :P)

Never mind, I just saw the "wget not found" error.
Sorry for the noise, Alistair

Hi Guille,
Thanks very much for making this available.
I'm trying to build the snap and am getting the following error:

I haven't built the VM before, so it will take me a while to track this down. If this is a common problem with an easy solution I'd like to know :-)
P.S. In the readme under Installing snapcraft, build-essential doesn't have an "s", and git is required, e.g.
$ sudo apt install build-essential git
Thanks again, Alistair

Hi all,
Just wanted to share this:
https://github.com/guillep/pharo-snapcraft
It is basically the code to generate a snap package of the pharo-vm using snapcraft. Using this, the VM is generated and packaged with all dependencies. This should help in running pharo in different linux distributions.
I invite you to check it, report problems and submit fixes.
Cheers, Guille
