Hi, I've packaged Pharo VM for the Nix package manager which can be installed on many Unix (e.g., Linux, MacOS X and FreeBSD). This works well but requires installing Nix on your Unix.
Another solution is http://openbuildservice.org. Is any of you interested in trying to use this service to build Pharo VM packages for several Linux distributions automatically? I can help.
