Ok, finally got something functional by downloading  from http://ftp.squeak.org/various_images/seaside/Squeak4.1/Seaside3.0-All-in-One.zip
as referred in the HPI Seaside tutorial.

All the Magritte packages were pre-loaded. 

But before this I downloaded  the image from
http://www.seaside.st/distributions/Seaside-3.0.5-OneClick.zip
and this did *not* have the Magritte packages installed.

I was under the impression that Magriite was quite fundamental to the Seaside architecture but it appears from the dependancy list of the Seaside package that Magritte is not a prerequisite (probably an error in my understanding)

What is a little more puzzling (worrying because I was planning to use Magritte in a current project) is that when I do load the latest Seaside and Magritte packages in a current Pharo release (1.1.1 and 1.2.1) they seem to be quite broken. Is this the Smalltalk version of DLL hell or am I suffering from terminal PEBKAC failure?

Best Regards,


Miguel

Let's forward this to Dale and the Metacello group; they might know
what is going on.
