Working VM for OS X for Pharo 7

Hi,

Where is it possible to get a working OS X VM for Pharo7 ?

Accoring to my test, the VM linked at http://pharo.org/download as error
with a libgit plugin (same for linux VM btw)

Thanks

Hilaire

I've been using both the stable and latest VMs on Ubuntu 16.04 without
libgit problems "forever" (I don't remember the last time I had
problem).

Can you provide the path to, and output of "ldd libgit2.so"?

Which linux are you using?

Cheers,
Alistair

I downloaded again the 32bits linux VM, and I can't reproduce this error
with a stock P7 image.

Now I am still wondering with os x vm because I tried two days ago on a
computer at school, and get this libgit plugin error, same error
mentionned as well by a Pharoer.

In reply to this post by HilaireFernandes

Good morning,

Last week I had a problem with a conflicting version of libgit installed by brew. In my case, brew had updated the version making it incompatible with the bindings in FFi.

Could you check the execution of:

DYLD_PRINT_LIBRARIES_POST_LAUNCH=1 ./pharo-vm/Pharo.app/Contents/MacOS/Pharo Pharo.image

So we can see the libgit that is loading. This can be fixed in the image side, I remember I fixed a bug in the lookup of libgit.

Hopefully I may have access to a mac tomorrow to test your request, or
it will be in 10 days.

On the other hand, is not libgit integrated in the VM, so I don't
understand how it can be related to system update? Or is libgit a
binding to a system git or something like that?

Thanks

PS: I did an update of my linux system a few days ago, so could it fix
the issue...

On Linux it is almost always:

- A library isn't found because the search path is wrong, i.e. LD_LIBRARY_PATH needs to be set, and/or

- there's a missing dependency.

The ldd command helps track these down by showing which dependencies are missing.

On Linux you need to be careful because the pharo script sets up LD_LIBRARY_PATH, so ldd may show something as missing which will be found when pharo is actually run, e.g libssh.

Re: Working VM for OS X for Pharo 7

I know what you are describing, for example cairo can be impacted.

My self questioning was: Does the VM rely on the host git library or is
the one shipped with the vm sufficient?

Best,

Hilaire

I don't know the reasoning for including libgit2. For libssh2 I
believe it was to ensure that certain options had been compiled in,
maybe this is the same?
