You mean one for each *Squeak* version? Well, I am not familiar with RB
in this case - is it different for 3.7, 3.8 and 3.9? I mean, how does
the RB "version tree" look?
You know - the current SMPackage has an OrderedCollection of
SMPackageReleases and each release knows its ancestor simply by their
place in the collection. I intend to add a previousRelease instvar so
that they can form a tree with branches.
Even though, I think you can have one RB package today too. Though
crude, the SMLoader will try to find the newest published release for
your Squeak version.
So... the short answer is: It should work today, if you ignore the fact
that the "previous release" relation will be wrong - but that hardly
matters until my dependency model is in place.
The next release will have the instvar previousRelease, and then it will
definitely work.
