Agreed that naming it Pharo would be better, but the name is of less interest to me than the vm sources.  If there are Pharo-specific changes, I do not see them anywere??

Hi Doru: In a wonderful world, you would have latest PharoVM in the Ubuntu repositories and for all Ubuntu verions. In the real world, this is not done. The squeak or Pharo VM that usually are at the repositories are old and not for all Ubuntu versions. Thus, I think the easiest way to install it, is this (as Dale said):

1) Download the VM from here http://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/22745/pharo-vm-0.15.2d-linux.zip 
2) Unzip it somewhere.
3) And then you can just execute VM. Suppose you uncompress the zip in /home/doru/pharoVM/pharo-vm-0.15.2d-linux/
Then you can open a terminal an do /home/doru/pharoVM/pharo-vm-0.15.2d-linux/squeak   /home/doru/pharo-images/myxxximage.image

Now I notice that it would be better if the executable file is called pharo instead of squeak

That's all.

Best

Mariano
