The gci libraries need to be updated ... assuming that you are running 
on linux, you can update the gci libraries by doing the following:

   # exit the GemTools image
   cd GemTools-1.0-beta.8.7-3*.app/Contents/Linux686
   rm gciForLinux.so
   cp 
$GS_HOME/gemstone/products/GemStone64Bit3.2.8.1-x86_64.Linux/lib32/*.so .
   ln -s libgcirpc-3.3.0-32.so gciForLinux.so
   # restart the GemTools image

No new releases planned for GemTools but the above instructions should 
get you functional again. If you are comfortable with GemTools then I 
would suggest that you continue using it for now ... I plan to release a 
new version of GsDevKitHome by mid-November which includes a new version 
of tODE and between now and the release I am restructuring project 
structure (see GsDevKit_* on github://GsDevKit), so it might be best to 
hold off for a bit ... if you are interested in moving to tODE anyway, 
then go ahead and take it for a spin ...
