Global package cache

Hi there,

I've seen some people using a shared package cache to avoid downloading
package that were already used.

Is this a preference somewhere or do you set manually:

MCCacheRepository default: (aFileDirectory somewhere)

?

Cheers,
Francois

That's right. We never got around to adding the setting, although it would be easy enough. Maybe best to put it in a global Pharo startup script?

See http://forum.world.st/Having-a-shared-package-cache-Re-MCDirectoryRepository-defaultDirectoryName-ignored-td3924814.html for the original discussion

Cheers,

Yes, I always put that in my startup preferences: http://marianopeck.wordpress.com/2012/05/12/startuploader-running-startup-scripts-in-pharo/
