[Pkg-squeak-devel] Bug#595787: squeak-vm: This is still a problem, and getting worse

[Reuben Thomas]

Package: squeak-vm
Version: 1:4.10.2.2614-1
Followup-For: Bug #595787

The problem exists exactly as originally described. It is getting worse in
the sense that the Debian etoys package is now seriously out of date (see
#636577), and therefore it’s natural to install it from source, only that
doesn’t work, as it expects to call the normal squeak script.

The natural workaround is to deinstall Debian’s squeak-vm and install that
from upstream too, which is a pity.
