Hi all,
I logged a bug in Mantis about loading latest code updates. I have an image built upon a fresh 7020 3.9 image and I cannot seem to "load code updates" to get the 3071 patch. Details are at http://bugs.impara.de/view.php?id=3400.
It might just be me or my image, but I'm not sure why I get the walkback about SMBase-gk.63 not found.
Do you have updated SqueakMap in the image? I think what is happening is this: SqueakMap loaded the 2.1 version, updating to the next alpha then will try to merge in the SqueakMap changes in the 3.9a repository. For that, it tries to get the common ancestor.
Now the repository registered with the in-image SqueakMap pakcages is wrong (old?) (modules.squeak...), resulting in the error.
Any ideas or do I have to keep building new images from the latest and greatest to get fixes?
There is no really good way... the update stream allow to load a script then then merges with the latest in the 3.9a repository. But that's slow, and sometimes the results are not good... (see earlier discussions on the list).
for 3.9b we think about using an updates based updatestream for making it easier to track changes.
