Hi Iâm a bit confused by what is described below - when it says "This is already in latest Pharo build. If you want to try it in a Pharo 6.1 â¦.â - does that mean its already in the latest Pharo 7 (emphasis on 7?) build (and I can see it in Pharo 7) - but the latest 6.1 build doesnât have it and you must follow the steps you described?
Hi!
Each time an Iceberg stable version is released, it is integrated to Pharo 7. (Usually, it's available the next day the time to do the PR, test it, integrate it and build the new version)
Pharo 6.1 is still at the v0.6 of Iceberg. IIUC, thi is mostly because the new UI depends on a lot of changes from Pharo 7 and backporting it would mean backport too many changes. The goal is to keep Pharo 6.1 as stable as possible.
Actually, the main reason is that Metacello integration has some different semantics that would bother people relying on the current behaviour. Ideally, we would like to have a Pharo6.2, but that means a lot of work infrastructure-wise (build servers, file server, zeroconf...).
So the steps to update yourself Iceberg to v1.? is for Pharo 6 only.
I initially read it to mean that new Pharo 6.1 builds would automatically get it - but that doesnât seem to be the case?
