Hi,

Can someone who really knows/understand please describe where to find the necessary Pharo VM's to run on the newly released macOS Sierra (10.12) ?

I��m in the process of producing compatible VMs.

Today or tomorrow they will be ready.

ps: in the mean time, you can use this one: cog_macos32x86_pharo.cog.spur_201609231453.tar.gz (is not yet 100% compatible with Pharo but is working fine�� just command line ��-�� vs. ��--" is not compatible and some others��)

In particular it seems old VM's just stop working and recent VM's that do work either have issues or cannot run older (3.0, 4.0) images.

Thanks,

Sven

PS: I have not yet upgraded, but one of my colleagues did and he got stuck: even after we found a VM that worked, it could only run 5.0 images, not his production 4.0 images. Needless to say, this is not good.

PS2: Another really annoying problem is the following: he saved all his (really important) scripts using Script Manager as a FUEL. Moving between 4.0 and 5.0 FUEL stops working (version incompatibility) - this is really not cool, why would a newer FUEL not be able to read older FUEL. He ended up copying string data by opening the binary FUEL file in a text editor.
