Something I'm not quite sure on, is whether using repository: 'github://....'rather than a HTTPS connection requires SSH keys to set up. Presuming so, you should first ensure you SSH is working from the command lineper... https://help.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/testing-your-ssh-... think a facility to do a similar user-check from within Pharo would be extremely useful.) Next, if you are on Windows, the added complexity is that "Use Custom Keys" must be enabled.(And it would be useful if that was the default for Windows. I trip over it _every_ time I start a new image.) [image: image.png] cheers -ben On Wed, 20 May 2020 at 06:38, G B via Pharo-users < pharo-users@lists.pharo.org> wrote:
I am new to Pharo and liked that it is a cleaned up and modern Smalltalk, but I think I'm done before I ever started. My biggest interest was in Seaside, yet trying to install it from instructions on the Seaside GitHub fails:
Metacello new baseline:'Seaside3'; repository: 'github://SeasideSt/Seaside:master/repository'; load
Trying to load packages from the catalog browser like Magritte fails. Some packages aren't updated for 8.0 and are only available for 7.0. Some are only available for 4.0. Trying to follow the book for creating a blog has ha me spend time trying to get something going to no avail.
I'm not an expert programmer, but I've been in IT for 25 years and can do some C, Racket, Pascal, shell languages, awk, Perl, but I am stymied at every turn with Pharo.
