For learning Smalltalk, running in a virtualbox VM absolutely works (for me), but I'd like to try and compile for Debian stable (or statically link glibc(?)) and then add to the official repositories so that it's easier to install. Bonus points would be making a 64-bit version... ;)
You have a few solutions solutions: 1/ try this http://files.pharo.org/vm/pharo/linux/old-libc/pharovm-ubuntu804.tar.gz 2/ try the .deb file for Ubuntu that is closest to your distribution: https://launchpad.net/~pharo/+archive/unstable/+packages 3/ create a .deb file yourself using the deb generator scripts I wrote: https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-ubuntu/tree/master/pharo-vm-core-i386 (as soon as it is compiled, it will work fine on 64 bits architectures) 4/ use the nix package manager that already has a package for Pharo: http://nixos.org/nix/manual/.
