[ANN] Squeak 5.1 released; www.squeak.org; Trunk open again

Hi,

Unzipping the Windows Version from the squeak.org, skip configuration and try to bring up the halos on the Welcome thingie brings a multitude (more than I could close) of Warnings in the Windows version.

Same with AllInOne and ARM versions on my Pi 3

Morph from the Objects catalog bring one Warning:

MenuMorph class>>#menuSelectionColor has been deprecated. mt: Use UI themes.

which can be resumed.

On the World I can bring up the halos.

So maybe the first case is sth. recursive through the submorphs.

Cheers,

Herbert

If you can open the Preferences and find the deprecated warning preference, setting if ‘off' solves the immediate problem.

Ooops. :) Well, we updated the release artifacts and disabled the deprecation warnings by default in 5.1.

Have fun!

… and click on the donate button.

I’ve said it before and I guess I’ll say it plenty more times -

Right now we need to migrate the squeak website to new servers, which takes a fair bit of work. We really ought to at least make a symbolic payment to the brave people that do it for us. For that we need some money and the bank account is essentially empty. The donate button is just below the three quick-download buttons. Go on, go and click on it. You know you should.
