mathematica and mathematica-light have been updated to 14.1. Matematica 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.

Starting with Mathematica 14.0, I found that Greek characters create a lot of vertical space in Input cells and are incorrectly rendered in inline TeX input within Text cells. Both of these problems can be solved by installing ttf-dejavu. It could perhaps be added as an optional dependency.

Additionally, the default settings lead to an erroneous placement of superscripts in Input cells. This can be solved by installing consolas-font (the default font used in Microsoft Windows installations of the software) and permanently making it the default font by executing SetOptions[$FrontEnd, StyleHints -> {"CodeFont" -> "Consolas"}] in a notebook.

One thing to keep in mind, if you use MATHEMATICA_USERBASE, that variable should be renamed to WOLFRAM_USERBASE. More details at Upgrading from Mathematica to Wolfram.

marmis commented on 2024-08-29 01:21 (UTC)

@rpanerai Oh, thanks, I've had desktop files fixed in my system, but forgot to update the PKGBUILD. I checked a bit more thoroughly and everything should be okay. Please, let me know if there's anything else missing.

@jdujava I've updated the proposed PKGBUILD to work with a custom install directory, based on your patch. I haven't added bash to makedepends, as it is already a dependency of pacman (and makepkg). For PKGBUILD, it is safe to assume that base and base-devel are installed.

jdujava commented on 2024-08-28 16:42 (UTC) (edited on 2024-08-28 16:43 (UTC) by jdujava)

@marmis: Would you be kind enough to also patch in support for changing the final installation directory, as sketched out in this gist?

rpanerai commented on 2024-08-28 16:20 (UTC) (edited on 2024-08-28 18:58 (UTC) by rpanerai)

@marmis: Thank you, the new PKGBUILD works smoothly.

My only problem is now with the .desktop file embedded in the PKGBUILD. It points to /usr/bin/Mathematica, yet the file is not provided by the new package. After the recent rebranding, the notebook GUI can be launched by running /usr/bin/WolframNB.

EDIT: OK, as I am looking into this a bit more, it seems like the part of PKGBUILD that deals with fixing the symbolic links needs to be updated.

marmis commented on 2024-08-27 18:33 (UTC)

Oh sorry, my bad! But thank you @rpanerai. So the rsync step is still required, I've updated the proposed PKGBUILD and included inetutils, and tested the final version this time.

rpanerai commented on 2024-08-27 14:17 (UTC) (edited on 2024-08-27 14:18 (UTC) by rpanerai)

@marmis: I tried the PKGBUILD in your repository but ${pkgdir}/opt/Mathematica/ somehow ends up containing only the Documentation folder, leading to an error when later makepkg looks for the Executables folder (at line 144 of PKGBUILD).

By the way, inetutils should be added as a (make) dependency, as the installer script invokes hostname.
