Recent Pier images downloaded from https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/job/Pier3Addons/ have had several issues:

• Bringing up http://localhost:8080/pier generates the error: MessageNotUnderstood: GRSmallDictionary>>inject:into:
• Many of the tests fail - for example: PRValueLinkTest debug: #testParseAliased generates the error: around: PRCocoonConfiguration class>>configurationName nil MNU #writerName

Loading older Pillar packages resolves the dictionary issue, but not the failing tests. Opening a recent Pillar image had all of the similar tests pass successfully.

The latest workflow is to download a Pier image, load Pillar with:

Gofer new
    smalltalkhubUser: 'Pier' project: 'Pillar';
    configuration;
    load.
(Smalltalk globals at: #ConfigurationOfPillar) load.

And then load my customized code (like PierToDo).

One issue with this approach is that links can not be made as loose - for example - wiki text on a page like:

@anchor
text

*link above text>@anchor*

This fails with the message:

MessageNotUnderstood: receiver of "readStream" is nil

Changing it to this resolves it:

*link above text>.@anchor* - Note the dot before the at sign.

Another problem is the value links such as:

*value:date*

are not working.
