@rubin55 thanks for the help, updated with your suggestion - let me know if any issues

@envolution there is one change missing (see upstream issue) that will make everything work again - the maven2 directory is erronuously not added to the package:

Looking at the PKGBUILD now, I do think it is better to copy the entire archive output to /usr/share/scala3 instead of cherry-picking; this would avoid issues with future releases changing the layout of scala3_home.

I was also looking at @mbloms comment from 2020: "Some time in the future scala-dotty should be removed and the package base moved to scala3"; I do think that time has come :-).

@rubin55 - thanks, updated and will watch the issue report

Fwiw, I think upstream Scala 3.5.2 is broken. scalac does not seem to run normally and the jar files directory seems to be empty except for three manifest-only jars. I filed https://github.com/scala/scala3/issues/21926

Building scala-dotty... ==> ERROR: PKGBUILD does not exist.

valsaven commented on 2023-06-19 06:45 (UTC)

@mbloms I sent you the patch for 3.3.0 via email. Please check when you have time

rubin55 commented on 2023-06-13 20:57 (UTC)

@mbloms: could you upgrade to 3.3.0?

mbloms commented on 2020-11-19 08:34 (UTC)

The intent with the latest update is that scala3 gives you Scala 3 as scala3 on the PATH.

scala-dotty provides symlinks dotr -> scala3 etc.

Some time in the future scala-dotty should be removed and the package base moved to scala3

If you want to be able to run scala3 as scala, you have to make your own alias or symlink.

Please tell me if you have issues or opinions on this.
