Any problems known here?

I wonder if anyone has problems running a Pharo on a 64-bit System
(Debian) with multiarch. Because strange enough it can suddenly not find
vm-display-X11 any more

Regards
Friedrich

You need to install the desktop variant:

$ apt-cache search pharo

pharo-vm-core - Clean and innovative Smalltalk-inspired environment.

pharo-vm-desktop - Clean and innovative Smalltalk-inspired environment.

pharo-launcher - Launcher for Pharo distributions.

So install pharo-vm-desktop and you’ll see

$ dpkg -L pharo-vm-desktop:i386 | grep X11

/usr/lib/pharo-vm/vm-display-X11.so

Hope this helps,

I guess this will do for Ubuntu and Debian.

But my probem was much more profane
and ldd o vm-display-X11 has informed me that two libraries where not
there. I installed them manually and after that Pharo start working
again.

So yeah ldd is your friend.

But thanks for taking the time helping me.

Can you tell which libraries were missing? Maybe the dependencies of the package needs to be adjusted. Can you tell which debian version and channel (stable,…) you are using and what files were missing? I think you know that but if you have the file you can find the package that needs to be installed by doing

$ dpkg -S [filename]

I've not installed from the repository. I'm using Debian. And the
missing libraries were libICE.so.6 and libSM.so

(..roars..)

i think a long-term solution is to get rid of these dependencies since they

serve no purpose at all.. but for that, we need to check what and why display driver depends on
those libs (but i bet it is completely unnecessary and can be avoided).
