How to build current VM

I am trying to build a Pharo VM on Linux using the opensmalltalk vm git. I
just want to make sure I can reproduce the current system before tinkering.

I cloned the git and built the linux64x64/pharocog threaded vm (using
./msm). The build runs fine but the vm produced when started with a current
(6.1) image says (in debug log) "vm too old for image" I have verified that
the vm level of the source in the git is the same as the latest vm
downloadable from files.pharo..org (VMMaker.oscog-eem.2361). What additional
parameters do I need to produce a vm that matches the current latest/stable
that is 6.0/61 compatible?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Your VM is missing some metadatas. To get them execute

./scripts/updateSCCSVersions

Then recompile the VM.

Note that your compiled VM will still work.

Thanks in advance.
