Yes this is good. I read fast side by side the two versions and fixed. I go faster to fix what I see. So I will continue like that.
I would convert one small on STHUB. STHub is the way to go waiting for git. So we should not spend too much energy on it.

Thanks Ben I tried to install on my new fresh install of UBUNTU 14.04 64 bit and I get all sort of problems. First download.sh does not like the fact that I try to run it from my secondary internal drive and not the home folder. I get permission denied and when I try to turn it to executable , nothing happens, chmod +x executes fine but the file never turns into an executable. Linux is fun :D
So i clone it inside the home folder and now even though it is able to run download.sh it gives me an error "Downloading the latest pharoVM:
pharo-vm/pharo Downloading PharoV10.sources:
Downloading PharoV20.sources:
Downloading PharoV30.sources: Creating starter scripts pharo and pharo-ui
Please install the 32bit libraries sudo aptitude install ia32-libs Preparing Pillar image ./pharo: line 11: /home/exloupis/git/UpdatedPharoByExample/pharo-vm/pharo: No such file or directory
" I would install the 32bit libs but I thought that those are not necessary for Ubuntu 14 . So how I proceed ? On Mon, Jun 2, 2014 at 5:14 AM, Ben Coman <[hidden email]> wrote:

Sorry, I don't know anything on Pharo on Linux. However my line 11 for file ./pharo is... "$DIR"/"pharo-vm/Pharo.app/Contents/MacOS/Pharo" --headless "$@" which presumably wouldn't work at all for you, so I presume the process somehow customises the file ./pharo per platform. Generally speaking, have you tried running the download script verbosely? bash -x ./download.sh Presuming you find that ./pharo is called from prepare_image() in download.sh, then also prepend those lines with "bash -x" for a better look at what its doing cheers -ben

thanks Damien that works. However running ./update.sh afterwards creates this error "2014-06-13 18:07:52 (1,01 MB/s) - written to stdout [5311/5311] Downloading the latest pharoVM:

Clean the directory where you're running the script. If some of the files already exists the zero conf script won't work. On Fri, Jun 13, 2014 at 12:14 PM, kilon alios <[hidden email]> wrote:

what "clean the directory" mean ? And how I do that ? Do I need to delete the directory and reclone it ? On Fri, Jun 13, 2014 at 7:57 PM, Gabriel Cotelli <[hidden email]> wrote:

Yes.. I usually remove the previous content before using the zero conf script.. (I'm not using pillar but the basic script don't work if you already have the vm and tries to download it again, at least on my Linux box). Hope it helps On Fri, Jun 13, 2014 at 2:25 PM, kilon alios <[hidden email]> wrote:

Thanks Gabriel, yeah I thought so. Houston we have a problem. I changed the SqueakSource chapter to SmalltalkHub but I have 2 problems a) Even though I can generate the pdf for the First Application chapter. the pdf for the entire book does not generate , instead it errors complaining that it cannot find a png that I added which is where it should be and with the correct and appropriate filename. I dont see why it has a problem with this.
b) The layout is really messed up , it puts the image inside a code I have included and it looks very messy in the pdf. No clue how to solve these problems . I committed with these problems so you can see for yourselves.

Is this problem fixed already? If not, where can I see the problem?

Well I just commented out the image that was braking the process so that it does compile the book this is why you see it as fixed. So no the problem is not fixed , just disabled. If you go to the previous commit you will see the problem.
I did not add the path of the chapters in the template , so I went back and did that but that did not solve my problem. Still complains about being unable to find the image file.
As I said in the previous email, the weirdness of the problem is that the chapter compiles fine, generates all files including the hmtl and pdf output and it displays the image in both of them with no problem other that it appears as if inside the code box for the copy paste of monticello which is the messed up layout I was talking about early on. The layout problem appears only on the pdf and not the hmtl output of the chapter.
The problem is in the generation of the book, its as if Pillar had no issues generating the chapter and finding the image file but as soon as it tries to generate the whole book it has a problem with the image file. So either this is a Pillar bug , a Latex bug or I am missing something.
Maybe there is something about the name it does not like, I tried other names and they failed too. Its not a big problem, I just wanted to add at least an image of smalltalkhub. So I will leave this to you to fix it when you find the time and if you want to.

commited as you commanded ;) Build should fail in a few minutes . By the way there was a build that failed previously for this problem. Its the previous one.

thank you Damien, yes indeed it compiles now. So I was doing it wrong once more :D Sorry for wasting your time, I try to be careful but I make stupid mistakes at times. Will try to be more careful next time. The layout problem still remains though for the Pdf. But I suspect thats a Latex problem. You can see the issue at page 34 of the pdf. I have several images with the layout of the page when it comes to images like sometimes it adds too much whitespace between text and image and now this. Again maybe I am doing something wrong here.

did you take a look at the book pdf ? Can you see the page 34 ? by layout I mean the position of the image in the pdf is completely wrong, take a look at the html . Hmtl positions the image correctly , the pdf does not.
To be even more specific the image should appear after "In order to be able to use SmalltalkHub you will need an account. Using the link provided go to the website with your internet browser. Just click on
the Join link and follow the instructions to create a new account. Then login to your account. " but it does not, instead it continues the text then it correctly positions the code block
"MCHttpRepository it displays the first line of the code block as the last line of the page , then it goes to the next page and instead of continuing the code block it positions the image !!!! then after the image it continues the code block. So basically the image appears inside the code block even though the image and the code block are a few paragraphs apart !!! Now take a look at html it looks perfectly ok as it should be.

Don't worry about that, LaTeX is doing its job its own way :-). LaTeX try to put the figures at the top of the pages when possible.

ok I leave it to your capable hands and I will try to position images at the start of the page , though that is easier said than done :D In any case chapters need proof reading so what I commit should never consider "the final version". But I always try to produce as much quality as I can.
