@sudoforge Yes, the package has never bundled the app-engine-java
component (I always installed the component by modifying the PKGBUILD
file). I just wanted to highlight that installing a JDK or JRE is (and never was) sufficient to use the Java environment. This was a bug in the old package because it simply listed as an optional dependency:
'java-environment: for Java version of App Engine'

I did a split of the package to 3 packages:
google-cloud-cli
,google-cloud-cli-bq
,google-cloud-cli-gsutil
. There is also package containing the bundled python for those who want it or as a dependency to the gsutil (current version 5.24 does not work with python 3.13 out-of-the-box, although 5.25 which is already available on github should). I am also testing to include other "components".If there will be interest, it's also possible to split the manpages to another package. So for those who don't want them, the install time can get faster and size significantly smaller.
I have tried not to break anyones installation, so please try to install the 3 mentioned packages and it should work the same as before.
You don't need bundled python for the gcloud to work, and I would advice to use
gsutil
only if yo really have to. The prefered way is to usegcloud storage
anyway.
