To anyone who might be struggling with this: I don't call Ubuntu 9.10 the Kranky Kangaroo for nothing =:0 The apt-get line kept prompting for a CD. After a couple of false starts, I found instructions to go to /etc/apt /sources.list and comment out the line referencing the cd. That _appears_ to have worked.

Subject: [Pharo-project] Linux Pharo VM on Pharo website

Hi,

I've prepared the following archive. It may replace the "Unix (3.11-3)" download link.

http://lolgzs.free.fr/pharo/squeak-vm/squeak-3.11.3.2151-pharo-src.tar.gz

In this archive:

- patched squeak-vm rev. 2151. (The 2 patches are for FT2Plugin build and multiple options in CFLAGS to work. Patchs in archive).

- awk gnuification

- README with instructions to build and regenerate this source from VMMaker

- All Pharo-1.0 tests green (on my machine ...)

- it has been built/tested by several people in order to send me tinyBenchmark results :)

The tinyBenchmarks are not as good as Exupery one, but this vary a lot depending on the CPU.

Cheers,

Laurent Laffont
