The update to v14.0.0 has been uploaded. A list of new features can be found in Wolfram's blog.

If there are any issues with this PKGBUILD, please let me know in a commment below.

Wolfram offers two bundles for Mathematica: one with offline docs included, and one which relies on online docs. I have created corresponding version of the Mathematica package in the AUR:

  • mathematica: As this package has historically always included offline docs, it will continue to do so now. As of 13.1.0, the package takes up around 14.1GiB with all documentation.
  • mathematica-light: For those people who want a small package and/or want to use online docs, I have created this package which uses Wolfram's online-docs bundling of Mathematica. As of 13.3, the light version takes up around 7.2GiB.

No, those script files are normal. Maybe the installer is unable to detect the architecture in the makepkg environment?

That's strange. Are the files in your build directory pkg/mathematica/opt/Mathematica/Executables/ also empty?

The Mathematica 10.1 installer does not work quite right under the control of makepkg on my system. Most files are installed correctly, but several are installed as empty files, most importantly the actual executables in /opt/Mathematica/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/Binaries. This does not happen if I run the installer outside of makepkg (using the same arguments). The PKGBUILD worked fine for previous releases. Any ideas?

A word of caution: after upgrading to 10.0.2 the fonts looked terrible. However, I had several font packages installed (freetype2-infinality, fontconfig-infinality, ttf-ms-win8). Eventually, I found that I could solve it in one of two ways: A) either uninstalling fontconfig-infinality, which was somehow doing a bad font substitution, B) or uninstalling ttf-ms-win8, which was providing a font that fontconfig-infinality could not substitute. The result of A) and B) is different, but in any case the font improves a lot. For the moment I'm sticking with A).

Updated to 10.0.2. This release fixed the font issues that I was having :)

# To build this package you need to place the mathematica-installer into your startdir # If you don't own the installer you can download a trial version at http://www.wolfram.com/mathematica/trial

I get ==> Retrieving sources... ==> ERROR: Unknown download protocol: file Aborting... ==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build mathematica. ==> Restart building mathematica ? [y/N] ==> ------------------------------------ ==> Building today.

Does /bin/sh point to bash for you? From looking at the script, it looks like the script checks to see if you're using a terminal by running 'tty -s' and checking for an exit success. In your case, 'tty -s' seems to fail, which seems odd. What do you get when you run 'tty || echo fail'? I get /dev/pts/4.
