What exactly are you trying to evaluate? For simple expressions, I use:

$ ./pharo Pharo.image eval 20 factorial
2432902008176640000
$ alias p='./pharo Pharo.image eval'
$ p Morph allSuperclasses
an OrderedCollection(Object ProtoObject)
$ echo \'hello\' , \' world\' >hello.st
$ p $(< hello.st)
'hello world'
$

Clap is now part of the base image, so you should be able to just
download the latest image and use it "out of the box".

Eval works fine on Linux - I use it for tons of build stuff to launch an image pass a build script with AWS parameters in a constructed dictionary for example.

My apologies, I should have added "in Pharo 8".

I am also running linux, so "eval" is not an option in my commandline. 

I run Linux (Ubuntu 16.04), eval should work fine (but I'm not at my PC at the moment to produce an example).
