There are new pharo vms (non-spur) available with updated sources. As a side effect the pharo vm is now available on ubuntu 16.04 LTS as well. The created vms are in the unstable channel of the pharo ppa. It would be good if a few people could test the packages. If nothing is broken with the packages I can move them to the stable channel.
To test the packages you need to do: $ apt-add-respository ppa:pharo/unstable $ apt-get update $ apt-get install pharo-vm-core or $ apt-get install pharo-vm-desktop I hope the packages for the spur vm don't take a long time to come along as well. Happy to get feedback, Norbert
