Dear Pharo and Ubuntu users,

Nicolas Petton and I are proud to announce Ubuntu packages for the Pharo VM. Installing the pharo vm is now just a matter of:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:cassou/pharo sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install pharo-vm

With this package, you get:

- the latest pharo vm as a 'pharo' binary in the PATH - all plugins and libraries (native boost, freetype, ssl, ...) - file association so you can just double-click on pharo images - pharo icons visible everywhere (on image files, on ALT+TAB...) - PharoV10.sources and PharoV20.sources

Please fill bug reports on https://pharo.fogbugz.com.

This package is currently only available for Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal. Fill a bug report if you want me to package it for another version of Ubuntu.
