I downloaded your .debs and installed via dpkg.

The install seemed to go fine. I've been successfully using the 
3.5.1-devel. I haven't installed the new one yet.

It seems to work okay but I have this strange situation that I don't 
understand.

If I am logged in to a terminal as root, I get the new 3.4 deb version 
of Squeak. If I am in a terminal as myself I get the previous (and still 
installed) 3.5.1-devel version.

I can use the 3.4 as root but don't see how to do it as a normal user.

Below is some results for the the root and jimmie terminal sessions.
