Hello,
I am running Ubuntu 15.04 64 bit and want to start experimenting with Pharo.
What is the best way to get Pharo running in this environment ? It seems
not to be straightforward, but I cant imagine that it has not been
implemented before.
I am running Ubuntu 15.04 64 bit with PharoLauncher through the PPA.
That was an update from 14.10. For a development machine, PharoLauncher
is easiest.
From http://pharo.org/gnu-linux-installation#64-bit-System-Setup
Ubuntu (ppa)
Ubuntu users can use the dedicated ppa to install Pharo in various ways:
Install the headless Pharo VM only
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pharo/stable
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install pharo-vm-core
Install PharoLauncher, our experimental new GUI Dashboard
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pharo/stable
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install pharo-launcher
If you don't have the add-apt-repository command, google is your best
bet as getting it varies by distribution version
For reference, the ppa page on launchpad.net
