Hi Everyone,
I've made a snap package for Pharo 6 which I think is far enough along for some wider testing.
Just tried it now. worked like charm.
Thanks!
--classic - Snap packages are normally sandboxed for security reasons. Since Pharo is a development environment in which we want to be able to run any executable, or load any library, it is installed with access to the entire system (as the running user). Is this really necessary even if we want to work only within an image?
No, I've used it successfully with strict confinement, however I think most developers will quickly become frustrated with the restrictions. If someone has a Pharo based application that they'd like to distribute, I think strict confinement is a much more likely to be a realistic option. Cheers, Alistair
