We will.
Now the question is
        - is the bug really fixed?
- should we include FFI really in the distribution (I would vote for if it does not put mess).

Hi Kjell,

I came across your postings on problems on installing Exupery [1] in Squeak.

I'm sure your problem is the Installation of FFI in the 3.10 image again. Arrrgghh!!! See the bug + fix [2] - just file in the changeset from above location [2] before loading FFI
and tell me if it works.

Unfortunately I tried to convince the community several times (see [3] for an example) to
update the default 3.10 download images:
- since people typically start by downloading an image from the website - since FFI is a very often used package for some of us and some packages depend on it
- since not every new user knows about bug 6980

But unfortunately still nobody really cares. Yes there are nice Installer scripts and friends - but they dont automatically fix this problem for a fresh 3.10 Squeak download.

However I als filed a bug report + fix [4] for Pharo in the hope that this Squeak distribution will be
more user friendly than the standard Squeak in the future...

Thx
Torsten
