For how long UUID issue will bite us? (Was: Re: [squeak-dev] Closure testers needed)

Igor Stasenko
Ken, this issue with UUID is almost half-year old (if not older),
and was reported multiple times by multiple people who running squeak on linux.
I thought this were fixed already.. but it seems there are some VMs
which don't have such fix.

David, can you shed a light on the status of given issue?

I don't normally have this failure and I have run the tests before.  But
maybe that's because my usual VM (3.10-1) does not the plugin (I don't
see it as an external library at least, I suppose it could be compiled
into the VM).

There's a well known work around to the problem which is to remove the
UUID plugin. Unfortunately the plugin works reliably on some Linuxes
including older Ubuntus but fails for others like newer Ubuntus. This
work around has been added to the latest Exupery VMs by Damien.

I aim to look at the root cause but it will need to wait until I've got
time. Others are welcome to investigate now. It does not effect either
Ubuntu 8.04 or Gentoo which are the versions I personally use.
