Installing the pharo vm under Ubuntu is just a matter of: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:cassou/pharo sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install pharo-vm Recent changes: - latest VM packaged - separation between pharo-vm-core (few dependencies) and pharo-vm-desktop (depends on pharo-core + opengl + x11 + cairo) - no more warnings from the packaging systems - pharo man page - no more embedded libraries (pcre and libjpeg) (thanks to Esteban Lorenzano) Todo list: - make Pharo a graphical executable that lets user create and launch images (more on that in my next email) - see if Debian would be interested in including this package -- Damien Cassou http://damiencassou.seasidehosting.st "Success is the ability to go from one failure to another without losing enthusiasm."
