Hi,

Hi!

Well, our redhat 6.9 systems have 2.12, so, that qualifies.

And yes, we still have RedHat 6, and 6.9 was released only 6 months ago!  It will finish extended support in a mind-blowing 7 more years in 2024.

Redhat 5, still supported for another 3 years till 2020 has glibc 2.5.

for a brief moment you really scared me. I thought you referred to RedHat Linux 6 which was released in 1999 but you are referring to Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL).

As it turns out we have "latest" (as soon as a commit is made to pharo-vm.git) and hand curated "stable" (hand created source tarballs, rebuilt from a git commit of opensmalltalk-vm) for RHEL6 and CentOS 6.

CentOS 6.x:

# Add the repo
$ yum-config-manager --add-repo http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/pharo:/latest/CentOS_6/devel:languages:pharo:latest.repo

OR (for stable):

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/pharo:/latest/CentOS_6/devel:languages:pharo:stable.repo

# Install 32bit packages (with X11 dependency for *-ui or not)

$ yum install pharo6-32-ui.i686 or pharo6-32.i386

# Install 64bit packages

$ yum install pharo6-64-ui.x86_64 pharo6-64.x86_64
