Arch Linux User Repository

I have updated the package to the latest Paper sources. I apologize for the time it took to update this package, as I was busy IRL and I ended up ignoring the email I received about the package being outdated.

The resulting jar was renamed from paperclip.jar to papermc_server.jar due to the changes upstream (seems like paperclip is no longer used and one can simply run gradle to produce the server jar) and to provide better compatibility with the versioned package, papermc.

The required java version was also updated to java>=17, reflecting the change from the latest Minecraft version.

FYI this package doesn't need updating as long as the Paper development team keeps using the master branch for latest Minecraft versions. It should compile without any issues.

@Cryen the build script from Paper uses git to apply patches to the repository, so you need to setup git on your system before using it.

You can, however, cd into the directory where the git repository was downloaded and run git config user.email "example@example.com" and git config user.name "random name" to have these settings apply to the current repository only.

I don't get the installation process, why am I considered a committer when I just want to download and install the package?

PKGBUILD seems broken. Makepkg tries to call a './paper jar' command or something.

I've updated the package numbering scheme to include the number of commits so the package manager doesn't think a newer commit is outdated compared to the local version installed. Thanks to Chloe Brown for reporting the issue and submitting a fix!

The previous scheme was: 1.16.3_LASTCOMMIT

The current scheme is: 1.16.3.rCOMMITCOUNT.LASTCOMMIT
