Hmm,
I forward this because I thought that I answered on vm-dev...
but of course, pharo team cannot follow this ML for obvious reasons, and
prefer obscure ML not even listed here
https://lists.gforge.inria.fr/mailman/listinfo, maybe a private ML unless
it's a typo?

Hi Stephane,

please read carefully 'Ridiculous failure...' thread on OpenSmalltalk VM
dev mailing list.
http://forum.world.st/Ridiculous-failures-td5118674.html

We know that the CI set up is not good, it leads to these ridiculous
failures.
Solutions have been sketched for a long time, but never implemented in the
original opensmalltalk-vm repository.
https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/pull/386

And of course, this kind of solution has been implemented in the pharo fork
meanwhile...
So a problem coming from the way pharo is built on opensmalltalk, is solved
only in the fork shortly after the fork.
A sign that it was not so complex to solve after all?
This change was not contributed back. Why is that?
Do you think it's a good thing to let pharo build rotting in original repo?

Yes, this attitude upsets me. I helped fixing pharo builds upstream,
"cleaning after the dog of someone else" as I said.
But no one in Pharo community will never help and contribute back?
Or take at least time to answer when I request support?
You know the French saying, "trop bon, trop con", that's exactly how I feel
at the moment.
