I am pretty sure this was intended for the list...

    Hi Eliot,

    I thought the fix was obvious - we just need to evaluate "Class removeSubclass: ObjectTracer class" - so other than
    pointing out the bug, I am not sure what else I should do.


well what one could do is
a) create an update
b) create e.g. a Kernel package containing a postscript that says Class removeSubclass: ObjectTracer class
c) create another update

I *think* that forces the load of the package with the "Class removeSubclass: ObjectTracer class" postscript.  Bert, am
I right?


    Cheers,
    Florin
