We should keep the PPA like it is with Launcher. We unify in Pharo 5 by changing the others. Bye T. Gesendet: Montag, 13.

[Pharo-dev] Is Pharo Launcher Ready?
IIUC we are planning on making Pharo Launcher the default download. Right now, our installation options are a bit scattered. The Ubuntu package installs Launcher, and the Mac and Windows buttons at http://pharo.org/download download image+VM zip files. Should we change the ppa to install an image+VM? Or should we change the Mac/Windows buttons to download Launcher installers? A possible reservation about the second option is that there was a recent report on this list of failed installation on Windows 8. Was that ever investigated? Once we converge on one process, I will update the other GNU/Linux distro instructions to mirror that. - Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Is-Pharo-Launcher-Ready-tp4819384.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
