Indeed but instead of getting on your favorite topic, tell me where is the update.list?
on the server files.pharo.org
I do not understand why it is not in the pharo-update folder
because it is generated on the server and to have it in git would mean to have git installed on the server and check it in. We found that too complex and instead treat the updates.list as a cache that is just generated on the server The thing is that this is all crappy stuff, the next step is to remove the updates.list and just rely on files in a directory. So and *accessing* files.pharo.org to edit the file is sadly compacted, but that is because Inria admins can't give us anything else. ssh file-pharo.inria.fr sudo su - filepharosync cd /appli/files.pharo.org/updates/pharo3.0/ vi updates30.list (yes, and then this is not in unix line endings⦠so editing is a pain) yes, this all sucks. But what are the options? Doing nothing until it is beautiful and perfect? Marcus
