at the start of this thread (6th January) you said that you do
Smalltalk shrinkAndCleanDesktop
and later and after some fixes (to the image and/or the trunk?) you report that the resulting image is below 10MB.
As of now is
Smalltalk shrinkAndCleanDesktop
all that I need to do or do I need to issue other commands?
No. I started with that, but it doesn't quite work, so I extracted it into a script. I've been tweaking the script to fix issues as they come up, and to customize the shrink to the needs of my project. I'm pushing generally useful fixes back into trunk, but it's not completely done yet.
I'm also finding that every time I update to a new trunk image from build.squeak.org, I run into new issues. :-)
I'm hoping that's a good thing :/ Chris & I replaced the base CI image, by the way. So at least your starting point nowadays will have clean packages (even if it's not semi-pre-slimmed). I'll take another run at the the minimal-base-image-rehydrated-on-CI approach in the 4.6 cycle.
