[Metacello] Apparent loop in before / after ....

stepharo
hi dale

I'm working a pretty large configuration and I got the following error
messsage (and I do not understand I cannot debug).
Do you have any suggestion because I did not even know that this error
exist before.
I disabled the validation of the config because it validates packages
that I cannot modify such as XML or SMark.

Hi Stef,

Before we get too far, there is a `false ifTrue: [` statement in the
middle of
MetacelloPackagesSpec>>sortPackageSpecs:packageSpec:groupLoops:for:. If
you change the false to true and then run again with the Transcript open
to record the information ...

With these loops, you want to look for a repeating pattern near the end
and/or pass me the output from the Transcript and let me help figure out
the problem ...

I've started an issue[1] for this problem in case we come up with enough
information to be able to improve the validation or at least provide
better info than: edit this method and call Dale :)
