The problem doug is that it is unclear if all the features are needed and what is the status of the implementation. I do not know what are orphanage, scripts, upgrade upgrade, file....... Well, it was my understanding that this version of MC, PackageInfo and Installer were the ones which were intended to become the portable versions that all Squeak forks would use.
Well yes this is the intention of keith. It was a bold challenge. Now if you look at Installer you get a lot of things you do not need.
True, but this was just an attempt to get MC loaded. I'd expect quite a lot could be trimmed.
Now the key point is that if somebody in the pharo community stand up and take the **huge** and painful job to have a **real** look at MC1.5/1.6 and to be here as a fireman then there is a chance that we use it. Not just saying yes it works (which is already a challenge as I noticed it these days). Yes, but my response was only to do with solving the the loading problem you had. Not that every MC problem had been solved :)
;) Anyway this is a long way to go but we should go there step by step. Welcome to pharo.
Thank you :) I've been away from Squeak for a while due to the problems it's had but one of the reasons I came back was seeing what was happening with Pharo :)
