So how do the Linux binary only distros work then? I'm sure I've seen the choice, oh load the binaries, or pull and compile the source as choices in Ubuntu? Why bother making one-click apps with Linux VM if everyone ignores them? Or is this an 80/20 rule?
I guess, most of the users didn't recompile their applications, they just use the binary packages from their favorite distributions. One-click apps are nice in order to distribute Pharo before linux distro add it in their distributions. Usually it takes some time and i guess they will include the 1.0 version when Pharo 1.1 will be out ;-) -- Serge Stinckwich UMI UMMISCO 209 (IRD/UPMC), Hanoi, Vietnam Every DSL ends up being Smalltalk http://doesnotunderstand.org/
