This has been reported at least 10 times per week since the last 6 months. The VMs of the one click are FUC.. old and buggy. If nobody have time to make a new one click (we are all busy), please please please, remove it from the website. We give so much bad impression. It is worst than having no one click.
You cannot say that, because I updated the One-Click distribution less than a month ago:

People using this code get the latest available CogVM. The problem is that Pharo maintains its own unmaintained fork.
Huh?

but just don't say bullshit like unmaintained unmaintained VM.
The substantive change is the ephemeron changes. Â I'm not convinced that this code is correct. Â I'm convinced that the approach is wrong. Â See my postings on using the format word to encode ephemeronness.
I remember that, Eliot. And i agreed with you that it is not optimal. You also told back then, that you will introduce it soon, so i suspended any activities in that regard. I can revert that code from VM in no time, if you think it is the one, which makes VM unstable. Which i doubt, since ephemerons is not in use by image, so the code in question simply does an empty run, resulting same semantics as in your branch. But i will check it once more. -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko.
