about reliability of installer

Hi guys

I was going over the chapter on installer and I played a bit with it.
But I got the following behavior

| monticello |
monticello := Installer monticello
                http: 'http://www.squeaksource.com/BreakOut'.
        monticello addPackage: 'BreakOut'.
        monticello install


this installed


breakout-rj.11
        while
        the latest one is Breakout-rkrk.119

and of course I did not want to load Breakout but BreakOut which is my  
version.

So this experience shows me that Installer is a nice idea but that it  
has unpredictable behavior
--- may be I should reimplement the api I need and make it work (now  
keith will shout as usual)

Lukas is it because of such behavior that you got problem loading  
seaside or other projects with it?

The Installer seems to work quite fine for me, just spell the name of
the game correctly :-). Moreover, you can write something like the
following which is cleaner:

Installer ss
        project: 'BreakOut';
        addPackage: 'BreakOut';
        install

This will install Breakout-rkrk.119.mcz

I do not understand what you mean since I spelt it correctly.
BreakOut
and I got Breakout

| monticello |
monticello := Installer monticello http: 'http://www.squeaksource.com/BreakOut' 
.
monticello addPackage: 'BreakOut'.
monticello install
->
I get Breakout-rk and the package is NAMED Breakout and I did not ask  
that one
but BreakOut

People apparently polluted my open repository.

For me this installs:
        Breakout-rk.11 and not Breakout...119

Now
> Installer ss
> project: 'BreakOut';
> addPackage: 'Breakout';
> install


install Breakout-rkrk.119.mcz

I was discussing with lukas and he told me that the notion of latest  
in MC is bogus.
So we should not use it.

1. give Installer specifics.

2. use the api properly

3. dont expect  it to read your mind.

You got exactly what you asked for

Have a look at the squeaksource page:
http://www.squeaksource.com/BreakOut/. You will see that the latest
mcz named BreakOut is BreakOut-rk.11.mcz. The latest one named
Breakout is Breakout-rkrk.119.mcz.

On the web it is BreakOut-rk.11 but when I load it I get Breakout-rk.11

But I see students fucked up my repository.
