Loading a package vs. Merging?

[Marcus Denker]

Hi,

Honestly, the 3.9 setup of managing the image with MC is killing  
me... it just does not work well.
We need to find another way or improve it. (I have no time to do this  
in paralell to get 3.9 out of
the door).

I am spending more time fighting with getting all packaged to load or  
painstackingly updateing
the scriploader scripts by hand... doing a release take *hours* as  
soon as something goes
wrong, and at least 30min for the most trivial case.

My latest fun problems

a) Upstream maintainers want to have their packages in as is, they  
should not be merged...
b) moving methods between packages just does not work. They somehow  
disappear.

And everything just is far, far to slow. Impossibly slow.

I don't know how long it will take to do a 7005... I hope this  
weekend. Syncing with SqueakLand
is far away, as I am truly burned out... 150 changesets to go, I  
don't know when I will find
the energy for that.
