Hello,

Hopefully this is not off-topic for this list, because I've just subscribed.

In order to make it easy to install the "Smalltalk" programming language,
I've created a components/smalltalk directory in oi-userland.

I believe that Smalltalk has many dialects, one of them is "squeak4".

In a fork of oi-userland, in a branch called "smalltalk",
I've placed some patches for the squeak system,
so that squeak 4.16.7 compiles with gcc 7.5 on OpenIndiana Hipster.

It's the old classic Squeak version 4.x which works with Smalltalk images
4.x (like 4.6) from http://squeak.org.   It does not work with v5.x images.

The patches are now at :

https://github.com/cstes/oi-userland/tree/smalltalk

I've also created a "pull request" on github (#Smalltalk #5694).

I have preserved the LICENSE file to give the Squeak team credit:

I'm new to the process of submitting a package Makefile to oi-userland.

The page:

	https://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Getting+Involved

suggests writing an e-mail to the oi-dev mailing list.

How is this process working ?


Regards,
David Stes
