[squeak-dev] ReleaseBuilder fails to complete because of missing packages in checkForDirtyPackages

Hi All,

    when I try and drive ReleaseBuilder programmatically I get a number of
errors such as this:

Error: Missing snapshot: Traits-pre.307

It would be nice either to ignore such errors or to have an entry-point in
ReleaseBuilder that just does the preference setting, recompileAll,
condenseChanges and save.


BTW, ReleaseBuilder's recompileAll appears not to be working perfectly.
With the new bytecode set installed we still expect to see quick methods
compiled using the default bytecode set (something I have to fix but isn't
high priority).  But even ignoring quick methods there are lots of methods
that remain in the old bytecode set:

CompiledMethod allInstances size 67104
(CompiledMethod allInstances select: [:m| m signFlag]) size 61154
(CompiledMethod allInstances reject: [:m| m signFlag or: [m isQuick]]) size
1253

But this could b e operator error.  I found the above while using a
modified script that avoided checkForDirtyPackages.
_,,,^..^,,,_
best, Eliot
