Cyril,

basically it should much more easy to install the vm on debian than what you described. The problem is that nobody put the updated installation instructions on the web site. Here they are

http://forum.world.st/Latest-Debian-Ubuntu-and-CentOS-packages-of-the-pharo-vm-td4962000.html

The problem with it is that it won't help you at the moment. Last week we discovered that problem that debian 9 uses libssl 1.1 and that does not work with SqueakSSL plugin. The problem has been identified and Holger submitted a patch for the problem. 

https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/pull/174

But there are even bigger problems. The current vms are in a bad shape. And it is really hard to get a patch in the vm. So there is no ETA when this will work.

So this is more of a FYI

Hi,

I would like to use Pharo on a Debian 9, 64bits.

On Pharo website there is an explanation of the requirements for Debian 7 and 8.

For Debian it is:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libx11-6:i386
sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-glx:i386
sudo apt-get install libfontconfig1:i386
sudo apt-get install libssl1.0.0:i386

The problem is that

sudo apt-get install libssl1.0.0:i386

throw me this error:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package libssl1.0.0:i386 is not available, but is referred to by
another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'libssl1.0.0:i386' has no installation candidate

Pharo cannot be use with this libssl. I think that Pharo's webstie
should also cover Debian 9.

Does someone know what should I do to get the right dependencies?
Should I manually download the .deb of debian 8 and install it?
