It is a different bug in the same behavior.

The easy workaround is to manually create a pharo.version file for the
offending image.

As to the bug… 

The immediate problem turned out to be that I had a startup error in certain
images due to a startup script that only worked in more recent Pharo
versions. So, suggestion #1: check that pharo.version has actually been
created, and if not produce a better error message. Also, ideally there
should probably also be a timeout in determining the image version because
sometimes the process returns without creating the file and other times it
doesn't return at all.

However, even after disabling the startup scripts, I was only able to
generate pharo.version by replacing
"~/Documents/Pharo/vms/private/6505/Pharo.app" with
"~/Documents/Pharo/vms/30-x86/Pharo.app", so there does also seem to be
something fishy with the 6505 VM
