The symlinks file now lists some extra libraries (making the “manual”
symlink of libgfortran in package(), now removed, fail), and they’re all
part of gcc-libs, so I’m assuming that FastR now includes *all* of its
own libraries and tentatively removing the gcc-libs dependency.
(Unfortunately, on my system, gcc-libs is required by a bunch of other
packages, so I can’t easily test if FastR works without it installed.)

This removes two dependencies: we no longer need to fix the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH with sed, and FastR now uses libgfortran 5 instead of 3.

With the 19.3.0 release, GraalVM supports two Java versions: Java 8 and
Java 11. This also affects all sibling packages, including FastR, so the
former fastr-bin package is split in two: fastr-jdk8-bin (this package)
and fastr-jdk11-bin. We use this opportunity to make several other
adjustments as well.
We no longer provide a version of the package name without the “-bin”
suffix. It doesn’t seem likely that a built-from-source version will be
added to the AUR soon, and other packages like jdk8-openj9-bin or
jdk8-j9-bin don’t provide non-bin versions either.
Since this release no longer includes the GCC libraries required by
FastR, we have to depend on gcc-libs and also gcc6-libs (FastR requires
an older version of libgfortran.so than the one provided by gcc-libs).
gcc6-libs doesn’t install its libs into /usr/lib, so we symlink its
libgfortran.so.3 into FastR’s lib folder; this works for R, but not for
Rscript, so for now the Rscript launcher is slightly tweaked to update
the LD_LIBRARY_PATH. This may change in the future, depending on
feedback from the FastR developers.
And finally, a .gitignore file never hurts.
