Hi,

I ran some tests this morning on the systems I can put my hands on. 
In all cases it is the squeak.cog.spur downloads.

* MacOS Catalina on x86-64.

** works perfectly.

** sound checked and works perfectly.

** The menu shows Squeak 5.0 but the version number in About
SqueakOSXApp is probably ok.

* Linux x86-64 based on Ubuntu 20.4.

** works perfectly.  

** sound checked and works perfectly.

* Windows 10 19.09 on Win64

** works perfectly

** sound checked and works perfectly.

* Linux ARMv8 based on Ubuntu 18.4

** works perfectly.

** sound can not be checked.

* Linux ARMv6 Raspberry PI running a currentish version of PiOS based
on Debian 10.4

** works perfectly.

** sound can not be checked.

* Linux ARMv6 Raspberry PI running an old version of PiOS based on
Debian 9.3

** does not work, a glibc version problem

** I would not worry about this but I just checked to be complete. 
Let's stick with currentish versions of PiOS

In addition I have downloaded the source for the same version and
built it on all of the above linux systems and they all run.  So, for
example, the old Raspberry PI system can be just built from source if
someone really needs Squeak to run.  It takes on the order of 3
minutes.

cheers

bruce
