That's part of the guessing game, isn't it? ;-) tl;dr: the "Refactoring
Tools" are on the SqueakMap for Squeak 5.2

The Squeak Wiki tells you all kinds of things like installing Refactoring
Browser from SqueakMap, the third Google hit is actually a diff view of a
Wiki page, then there is a note that the OmniBrowser is not supported
anymore... alright, don't want to know that. But hey, at least it mentions
SqueakMap. (But still you need to know that for the latest Squeak, you need
the "Tools", not the "Browser". I'll put the words "Refactoring Tools" on
the pages I came across.)

So there we go:
1) open SqueakMap Catalog from Apps menu
2) no packages there (Trunk image), have to right-click the package list
and disable "New safely-available packages"
3) enter "refactoring" in the Search package box, hit return. Takes me to
AwesomAtom first. Hmm. Unfortunately Refactoring Tools starts with an R, so
I won't get there with repeated return hitting any time soon
3½) since I happen to already know the name, scroll down to Refactoring
Tools manually
4) right-click, Install. "The package has no published release for your
Squeak version [...]". Yes. Another warning prompt, yes.
Done!

9 clicks or scroll actions if you know where to look (without step 3). Does
not sound too bad actually, but still if you grab a new image every now and
then and repeat it for multiple packages...
Would have been 2 clicks from the Do menu, or maybe two-and-a-half if the
Apps or Tools menu had a submenu to install often-used or recommended
packages.

By the way, why are the refactoring tools not in Trunk? Other IDEs that
call themselves like that come with their refactoring tools preinstalled.
