No ... if you don't want to install the full gemstone release on your 
client, you can manually copy the gci libraries ($GEMSTONE/lib32/*.so) 
from your server machine to the $GS_HOME/dev/clients/tode/pharo-vm on 
your client ...

Not a stupid question at all ... and it is possible to have 
GsDevKit_home automatically install client libraries.

On the client machine, you can use $GS_HOME/bin/downloadGemStone to 
download the product files to the client _AND_ when you do so, the gci 
libraries are automatically installed for tODE and any other clients you 
have created with createClient ... this does install the full gemstone 
release on your client, so if disk space is a problem you can manually 
copy the gci files as I described above ...
