Hi,

This is a request especially for those with an interest in old Squeak versions.

The latest image that I see for the 4.6 branch (image format 6504) of Squeak is:

Squeak4.6-15102.zip	2015-07-09 14:25	7.9M	File

http://files.squeak.org/4.6/

However, when updating that image using the global menu "Update Squeak",

http://source.squeak.org/squeak46.html
http://source.squeak.org/squeak46

There are updates over there (some of them quite interesting ones) more
recent than 2015.

My request is : would it please be possible to put a 

 Squeak4.6-15118.zip

on files.squeak.org in the 4.6 directory please ?

The 15118 version includes a new fix for example :

========== Compiler-dtl.305 ==========

Backport Compiler-eem.394 to squeak46. Required for various VMMaker and VM plugins that use _:_:_: syntax convention for C function code generation.

Name: Compiler-eem.394
Author: eem

Another example why I request a Squeak4.6-15118.zip image:

To automate updates from the command line, I like to do:

   MCMcmUpdater default doUpdate:false.

however sending that message is not possible in the 15102 image.

Only 

MCMcmUpdater updateFromServer.

works in the 15102 image, and you first have to update in order to send
the message:

   MCMcmUpdater default doUpdate:false.

for a non-interactive (automated) update with the doUpdate: argument false.

So would it please be possible to put a Squeak4.6-15118.zip at

http://files.squeak.org/4.6/

Thanks!
David Stes
