Dirty MC Packages in Pharo-1.1.1-OneClickCogVM

Sven Van Caekenberghe
Yesterday I downloaded Pharo-1.1.1-OneClickCogVM from

        https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/27524/Pharo-1.1.1-OneClickCogVM.zip

and I noticed it has two dirty MC packages (MethodWrappers and Tests).

This is probably a glitch, but not nice and confusion for beginners.

yes, that was a hack I had to do becuase at that moment Cog didn't support well objects as methods, used by MethodWrappers, and when running its tests, it crashed.
we wanted to create a quick image so that people could start using cog and help testing it.

this is not the case anymore in Pharo 1,2

so, if someone wants, the real solution is to create a new one click of 1.1.1 (without touching by hand method wrappers) and put new CogVMs.

cheers

why do you need method wrapper in dev?

Again this goes with my mail about pushing metacello dsitributions versus pharo-dev+++

Schwab,Wilhelm K
Stef,

True.  But it also got caught, perhaps because it was where it had no business being.  The great thing about configurations and Hudson is that the server will build multiple artifacts.  I think among them should be some bloated images for reasons just like this.  The core and a leaner dev would also be in the mix.
