<p>To build the latest Cog VM with the ARM simulation plugins
doesn't seem to work for me. I thought maybe I had dirty state,
so I started from a clean clone (this is the current tip of the
Cog branch, 60973ef):</p>
<pre>$ git clone <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:git@github.com:OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm.git">git@github.com:OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm.git</a>
$ cd opensmalltalk-vm
$ cd build.linux64x64/gdbarm32
$ ./conf.COG

<p>Is this the supposed way? Has anyone built ARM recently?</p>
<p>I build a fair amount of ARM code somewhat regularly on this
machine, therefore I doubt this is some basic dysfunctionality of
my dev environment.</p>
<p>My first reflex was to go and just hack into the problem, but if
it doesn't even go this far out of the box, then I'd expect I am
somehow wrong and I thought I'd ask before digging myself too deep
into the wrong direction. Also I've been having doubts, if these
configure scripts were broken, people would be complaining? does
anyone do ARM? (and by that I mean "develop the VM" for which you
need the simulator) Why isn't CI complaining? does CI only cover
Intel? does CI only cover production-packaging?<br>
