mathematica and mathematica-light have been updated to 14.1. Mathematica is being rebranded to WolframApp or just Wolfram. Because of that, you might have to update your current configuration according to Upgrading from Mathematica to Wolfram:

  • The default $UserBaseDirectory is now ~/.Wolfram (you may need to mv ~/.Mathematica ~/.Wolfram)
  • MATHINIT is now WOLFRAMNB_INIT (for additional arguments to Wolfram)
  • MATHEMATICA_BASE is now WOLFRAM_BASE (for custom $BaseDirectory)
  • MATHEMATICA_USERBASE is now WOLFRAM_USERBASE (for custom $UserBaseDirectory)

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.

@aplund Here's how it might work: - Mount the ISO into a directory, say /media/Mathematica_ISO - Download a snapshot of this PKGBUILD: cd ~ wget https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/snapshot/mathematica.tar.gz -O - | tar xz - Go to the snapshot folder, and create a symbolic link to the installer on the ISO: cd ~/mathematica ln -s /media/Mathematica_ISO/Unix/Installer/M-UNIX-LM.sh Mathematica_11.0.1_LINUX.sh - Run `makepkg -si` to install Mathematica Note that this PKGBUILD expects Mathematica 11.0.1, and verifies the content of the `.sh` file with a checksum. If the `.sh` file on the ISO is in any way different, it'll create an error. You can skip the checksums with `--skipchecksums`, but I can't guarantee that it'll work.

I have an ISO image instead of the Mathematica_${pkgver}_LINUX.sh script. The installation proceeds more like the instructions here: http://reference.wolfram.com/language/tutorial/InstallingMathematica.html I'm not sure exactly how I'm meant to use this PKGBUILD file with the ISO image.

Update release: - Fix an incorrect symlink to wolframscript; - Remove `matheamtica.install` as it is handled by Pacman hooks - Make certain dependencies optional, so that Mathematica can be installed on a system without a GUI if only the command line is required. If there are any bugs, please let me know. NOTE: Mathematica's install script produces an install error as it tries to install the icons itself.

@kjslag That's fine, I can take care of this package. Just add me as a co-maintainer (in the Package Actions above) so that when you disown yourself, I should automatically become the new owner.

kjslag commented on 2017-02-09 18:28 (UTC)

@JP-Ellis Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to maintain any new versions of this package. Would you like to adopt it?

JP-Ellis commented on 2017-02-09 07:38 (UTC)

@kjslag I realized a small mistake in some of the changes are suggested to the PKGBUILD regarding `wolframscript`. I also took the opportunity to replace the `echo` statements with makepkg's own `msg2`. The patch can be found at https://gist.github.com/df1698ccc7fae25a5dad561e9d20ef7e and can be imported with: ``` cd <mathematica repository> wget https://gist.githubusercontent.com/JP-Ellis/df1698ccc7fae25a5dad561e9d20ef7e/raw/359a8eabd1b435a3022caf06080b0412433fd25b/mathematica.diff git am mathematica.diff ```

user1549751245 read the PKGBUILD before trying to build it.

I get this errors as I try to install it: ==> Building and installing package ==> Making package: mathematica 11.0.1-1 ==> Checking runtime dependencies... ==> Checking buildtime dependencies... ==> Retrieving sources... ==> ERROR: Mathematica_11.0.1_LINUX.sh was not found in the build directory and is not a URL. ==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build mathematica. ==> Restart building mathematica ?

After I compiled it on the hdd instead of tmpfs everything's working now! Thanks!

kjslag commented on 2016-10-15 03:50 (UTC)

@JP-Ellis Thanks! I added your tmpfs check to package() since it didn't seem to work for me in prepare().
