Probably we need to put some of them (or all of them) also as runtime dependencies. I thought that it was done automatically because of the tests I did. Of course these tests were not enough :). "gcc-multilib", "libssl-dev:i386","libssl1.0.0:i386","libfreetype6-dev:i386","libasound2-dev:i386","libsm-dev:i386","libgl1-mesa-dev:i386","libx11-dev:i386","libice-dev:i386" I noticed some days ago that the packaged VM did not contain freetype, so there is something probably related.

Re: [Pharo-users] Test for Voyage failure to materialize in some situation

by Sabine Manaa

Hi Hilaire, I took a new image and loaded voyage and then your test. I can confirm. I assume, that this is a bug. It would be very interesting to hear the opinion of Esteban.

[Help Wanted] moderators for pharo mailing lists

by Marcus Denker

Hi, The two Pharo Mailinglists (pharo-dev and pharo-users) are run using Mailman via a commercial provider. (Thanks to the Pharo Association, https://association.pharo.org <https://association.pharo.org/>) This means that we have nothing to do with regard to technical problems/issues or running the service itself. but nevertheless, there are 1-2 emails per month that end up in a moderation queue, mostly because they are very very large. It would be nice to have 1-2 people more to help with these (infrequent) moderation calls. If you are interested to help â> send a mail to me. Marcus

Depending on your use-case it may be enough or not. Thanks guys! The second image (cog_macos32x86_squeak.cogâ¦) seems to be working great. The âlatest.zipâ image gives the NSPathStore2 errors. David

Re: [Pharo-users] Need help opening image

Hi, You need a VM with the SqueakV3 memory manager and compiled in the past few months for Mac OS X Sierra support. All recent Pharo VM are compiled with the Spur memory manager leading to this error âThis interpreter (vers. X) cannot read image file (vers. 6505)â. I would try the latest VM from this repository (latest.zip): http://files.pharo.org/vm/pharo/mac/ If you get the second error ( [NSPathStore2 stringByAppendingPathExtension:]: cannot append extension 'bundle/Contents/MacOS/' to â¦ ), it means the VM is too old and does not support Mac OS X Sierra. In this case, try instead the VM named: cog_macos32x86_squeak.cog.v3_201703051406.tar.gz present at: https://bintray.com/opensmalltalk/vm/cog/201703051406#files It should work but it is not a Pharo VM hence some features may be disabled (specific VM plugins, etc.). Depending on your use-case it may be enough or not. Best, On Sun, Mar 12, 2017 at 4:57 PM, David Shaffer <cdshaffer(a)acm.org> wrote: > I have an image (from Pharo3.0) which reports version 6505.

Some old VMs are archived here: http://files.pharo.org/vm/old/stack/mac/ Also the squeak VM's should open images that old some of which are here: http://www.squeakvm.org/mac/ and SqueakJS may be able to run it here: https://squeak.js.org cdavidshaffer wrote > I have an image (from Pharo3.0) which reports version 6505.

Need help opening image

by David Shaffer

I have an image (from Pharo3.0) which reports version 6505. I have tried four OSX vms but none of them will open it. Either I get âThis interpreter (vers. X) cannot read image file (vers. 6505)â or I get hit with a long stream of: [NSPathStore2 stringByAppendingPathExtension:]: cannot append extension 'bundle/Contents/MacOS/' to â¦ which I know is a known bug. The problem is, I canât find a VM that doesnât have this bug but can open my old image format (on OSX). Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks! David

What does file say on the file? I never used snap but is the process running in the same environment? Is $DISPLAY set from the process point of view? Can it connect to the display socket? holger
