I added an experimental baseline to show how we can
load Athens on demand only (see below). I committed it to ConfigurationOfRoassal without
modifying any symbolic version.
To load as before, you just load the default:
(self project version: '0.6-baseline') load
To load with Athens, you do:
(self project version: '0.6-baseline') load: 'WithAthens'
I think this should address your concerns.
But, as Stef pointed out, Athens should work with Balloon, too. Thus, RoassalMorphic
could just work with that the Balloon backend quite nicely.
What do you say?
I would be happy to. However the toolbox is telling me the following:
Critical Warning: No version specified for the package 'RoassalAthens' in version
'1.313' { noVersionSpecified } [ #validateVersionSpec: ]
Warning: Symbolic version #development refers to a version'0.6-baseline' whose
blessing #baseline is not #development { notDevelopmentVersion } [
#validateVersionSpecForSymbolicVersion:symbolicVersion: ]
We need to fix this

If I
understand correctly, if we would get ConfigurationOfRoassal to load Athens only in Pharo
2.0, you would be satisfied, right?
No, because if I download the Pharo from http://www.pharo-project.org/home (by clicking
on the download button), install Roassal, then errors will show up, and this is what I
want to avoid above everything else.
I am a fierce advertiser of Athens. Thanks to Igor tutorial, my developing environment is
Athens-based. I would like to see Athens widely used, yes.
However, if I go a step further, such as making Roassal depends on Athens, then we will
have to deal with:
- students who simply clicked on the download webpage and see bugs appearing because the
lib are not installed
- telling where to download and how to install Igor's VM
- telling the world how to install the free type fonts else Roassal will lamentably
crash
- have to test myself cairo on Ubuntu
- fiddling ConfigurationOfRoassal to make it sure it works with 1.4 and trying to not get
nervous because I will surely won't be able to save Roassal using Versionner anymore.
- Answering complains that loading Roassal takes too much time
Alexandre
This should be pretty fast, too.
Cheers,
Doru

https://www.iam.unibe.ch/mailman/listinfo/moose-dev I do not understand the problem.
Athens loads perfectly and all the VM are working.
Now if you prefer to wait for about a year, it simply means that you do not need vector
graphics.
Roassal needs to be loadable in a 1.4 image.
