Read carefully.
I don't say loading in "normal" images which have all classes you need.
I do read carefully. Installer and Sake/Packages were explicitly designed for minimal images which do not have all that you may need. That was the very reason for designing them in the first place.

In the KernelImage Installer only has the Network package as a prerequisite.
I talking about next modular or reduced images, like Spoon or Kernel and in
a minor place SqueakLightII or any 3.11 which don't have a lot of classes.

As example , the first DNU many packages raise is about Test, as this
reduced images don't have.
If you look in http://www.squeaksource.com/Testing or 311 there is an SUnit placeholder which enables packages with Testcases to load even when SUnit is absent.
Also , not all packages uses last conventions.
As example, still many use TwoWayScrollPane , but this is a long time
obsolete.
And we have some Morphs, Nebraska, Kedama, Etoys, going to live out of
image.

So , how deal with this ?
You put the dependency into Sake/Packages for the image that you are building and it can decide if it needs to load some additional glue package that provides the missing capability.
My bad solution is attached, when is polished I change for use the ftp as I
do for updating SqueakLight.

I don't need Installer, SqueakMap, Universes. All was useful and could be
loaded easily on top of SqueakLightII, but none solve the real trouble.
The real trouble being?
