Ok, I've added the updates to the restarted 3.9alpha update stream. (It even puts up a warning if you're trying to update from the old 3.9alpha stream... I remembered that doing a "self notify: 'please close this window'" is a not-too-bad way to bail out of the current UI process.)
However, there's a problem with the MCConfiguration install. It generally works and gets most of the way through it, but it hits an error trying to install the SMBase-dew.64 package. Looking at the debugger, it looks like it's trying to install an .mcd diff file for this. Ah, maybe the base version has to be in the same repository? (which would be SMBase-gk.63)
Anyway, anyone can try to do the updates if you want to see the error. The big MCConfig install of all the packages actually doesn't take as terribly long as I thought, maybe 5-10 minutes. (It probably won't be too hard on the server if just a few people on this list try it.) Here's all you need to do:
- start with a fresh 3.8-6665-basic image (save a copy) - 'SystemVersion setVersion' to 'Squeak3.9alpha' - load updates
I'm going to pack it in for the day, but hopefully this won't take too long to fix tomorrow. Then I can post a working image with the updates already loaded.
