Hey Nick, I have had success installing this package from SqueakMap.<br>

Hi,<br><br>I'm using the image from <a href="http://damien.cassou.free.fr/squeak-web/sq3.9-">http://damien.cassou.free.fr/squeak-web/sq3.9-</a><br>7067web07.08.1.zip and struggling to install the FreeType Plus package using
<br>the "Package Universe Browser".<br><br>The installation freezes with the popup message "installing FreeType Plus-<br>plugins version 0.13" and a progress bar "Preamble" that fails to make any
<br>progress!<br><br>Attempting to debug the problem, I started with a fresh image and installed<br>FFI. The FFI tests pass. Then FreeType successfully installs four dlls:<br>freetype6.dll, ft2plugin.dll, BitBltPlugin.dll
and msvsr71.dll, at which stage<br>the installation freezes. I failed to interrupt the running process and found<br>the only way to stop it was to kill squeak. It seems to be that Squeak is<br>caught in some endless loop, which is gradually using more memory - Windows
<br>starts giving me low virtual memory warnings after sometime.<br><br>When I restart squeak, the same thing happens - the system appears to hang, no<br>screen redraws, but consuming more and more RAM as time passes.<br>
<br>Removing the FreeType DLLs from my squeak directory allows me to restart<br>squeak and run as normal.<br><br>Any ideas?<br><br>Thanks in advance,<br><br>Nick<br><br><br><br>_______________________________________________
