I attempted to install 2 Universe packages (Video and Speech) but they both report errors then stop. How do I download a whole package so I can learn enough to fix the bug when the Provider / Maintainer is gone?
I emailed requests for both packages to fix the install errors and was notified Speech 9 Provider Mathieu.Suen@yahoo.fr is a non-working address. The other request is still pending.
Ought the Universe Browser and/or Squeak Release process be changed to note which packages are compatible with the new Squeak release? Or if not, provide an alternate button to download a fileout of old package code?
Thanks, Kirk W. Fraser
Hi Kirk,
Ought the Universe Browser and/or Squeak Release process be changed to note which packages are compatible with the new Squeak release? Or if not, provide an alternate button to download a fileout of old package code?
The Universe browser was an experiment that never gained widespread utilization in the community.
To see which packages are compatible with the latest Squeak release, you should use the SqueakMap Catalog. By default, it only shows packages which have been updated and tested with Squeak 4.2.
HTH, Chris
