Running Cuis on BSD systems

[lpvm]

Would it be possible to make Cuis Smalltalk available to the BSDs operating systems? At least for FreeBSD and NetBSD.

Thanks.

hi Luis,

i am doing the debian upgrades. as soon as possible i will tell you how to do it.

basically, there are 2 roads. the linux compatibility layer or you try the VM for your os. there should be a bsd version . as far as i remember in cuis-smalltalk-dev github installation notes there should be something about it.

will tell more when my laptop is available.

bye nicola

So, let's start to collect the pieces.

The virtual machine release we use by default in Cuis is this: https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/releases/tag/201901172323

There I don't see a BSD binary, but there are sources, try to compile them.

Or, you install in LinuxCompatibility layer and then Cuis for Linux from there. I was running Squeak like this about 1.5 years ago, in FreeBSD. It worked well.

let me know ! bye

I tried to compile the VM in OpenBSD recently and I failed. This should be reported in the VM github issue. I will do when time permits.

This issues should be better discussed at the VM list (1). There are more people there that can help. (1) http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/mailman3/lists/vm-dev.lists.squeakfoundation.org/
