But if you want to be able to reproduce always the same artefact, this
configuration has to be stored somewhere...
The Pharo choice is to deliberately store the configuration in image as

Beside Pharo config is also about setting specific Pharo icons, about
adding more plugins not readily available like Cairo and point to specific
version of the cairo library installed by upper level script, etc...
