The problem is not the ProcessWrapper package but the Scratch image. Keep in
mind Scratch is built on an old Squeak 2.8 image.
Since Scratch doesn't have SUnit, I didn't even bother installing the Tests
package. I just hacked my way until the source.st got installed, then I
tried the project description example (which, I think, is exactly what Arunabh
needs) and since it worked, I simply made a change set with all the changes.

Cheers
Richo
