       package.xml files or .star files, including remote URLs.  --download and  --update  accept
       names  of  packages, which will be searched in the current system or on smalltalk.gnu.org)
       or URLs to package.xml or .star files.

       Except in uninstall and list files mode, gst-package requires  write  access  to  the  GNU
       Smalltalk  image directory, and merges the XML package files on the command line with that
       file.

       The default target directory is /build/buildd/gnu-smalltalk-3.2.4
