[squeak-dev] OB cannot browser implements of messages

If I download a brand new Squeak executable (3.8.18beta1U, Mac) and
dev image (3.9-7067dev08), I am unable to browser the implementors of
a method. It's easy to test: just start the image, open a browser
window, and type printOn: (or any selector). You will get a Message
Not Understood error: OBImplementorsBrowser #implementorsNav:

Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug in OB? Perhaps I need a
newer Squeak executable (I see the version numbers don't quite match)?
I haven't had much luck running the Mac OS X image for 3.9 which is
based on unix sources, however: it just goes into some kind of stalled
state and no window ever appears.

Thanks!

hi

this is a release bug...
open universe browser, update it and then select the last OB-Standard.
I think that will fix your problem.

Damien, is it possible that you submit the march release a bit earlier
(or an update) so that this pb don't happen again. Thanks

It is a bug in OB.
You have to update some OB Packages (at least OB-Standard-Browser).

thanks! Sorry for the duplicate bug report... I tried doing a google
search before, but didn't find anything.
