[BUG] 5.3 alpha 32 bit for macOS fails in SnowLeopard

Edgar De Cleene

I decide move all my stuff to 5.3 as see a lot is changing.
And revive a 2010 mac mini with Snow Leopard

http://ftp.squeak.org/5.3alpha/Squeak5.3alpha-18222-32bit/Squeak5.3alpha-182
22-32bit-201810071412-macOS.dmg

This links do not work

But
http://ftp.squeak.org/5.0/Squeak-5.0-All-in-One.zip works and moving the
relevant part to Applications , this VM launchs Squeak5.3alpha-18222-32bit
.image

No idea how many users of old Apple stuff, but is good have next Squeak
running running on it.

So I understand you tested Squeak5.3a on MacOS Snow Leopard on a 2010
machine. And it did not work.

I understand that if you take the VM from a Squeak5.0-All-InOne 32 bit
release and use a Squeak5.3alpha-18222 image it runs fine.


Does this mean that the VMs includes in the releases 5.1 and 5.2 do
not work on MacOS Snow leopard with a Squeak5.3alpha-18222-32bit?


Kind regards
Hannes


P.S. Please note that the current Squeak5.3 alpha image has the build
number 18879. For testing it is good to go for the latests version.

P.S. 2   I changed the subject line [Bug] --> [Test]. It is about
testing which old OS is supported or no longer supported. The other
issue is finding a workaround for your problem. For example it might
be a solution for you to run the very recent Squeak5.3a image with a
Squeak 5.0VM.
But maybe the fixes needed are not many.

Yes
I could made soon the Excel table with all computers , VM and .image
combinations.
For 5.2 and 5.3 and the special case of Snow Leopard.
Could be useful for someone.

Hi Edgar,

I think that it would be a lot of work to come up with such an Excel
table, but yes it would be very helpful if you can do it :-)

Mi pleasure
And I add which image could run in MacOS
As example
Catalina force to use only 64 bit
High Sierra can't open very old stuff like 3.10 and older (reason for have
the Mac Mini 2010  running Snow Leopard)
I need as ScarletSmalltalk uses some of Alejandro S8 and this have roots in
his Fenix (3.0)
Also Exupery is very old.

Confirmed
The relevant link is
http://ftp.squeak.org/4.0alpha/Squeak4.0.rc3.tar.gz
http://ftp.squeak.org/4.0alpha/rc3/
Open the zip and navigate into for  Squeak 4.2.2beta1U VM
Javier sos mi ídolo :=)


Question of ignorant person.
If you compile the sources today with XCODE in Catalina you get a 64 bit VM
which could open a lot of old code ?
