As of igv 2.17.0, upstream is now compiling with Java 17, so you can uninstall Java 11 now if you have no other use for it, e.g. sudo pacman -Rns jre11-openjdk jre11-openjdk-headless.

Thanks for the heads-up @ohell. It should work now.

Thanks @wangzhichao. Yep, they updated it a few hours ago and removed the old version. 🙄

I just updated the package again.

The requested URL /igv/projects/downloads/2.15/IGV_Linux_2.15.0_WithJava.zip was not found on this server.

the lastest version is 2.15.1

@SamLukeYes Thanks for that. Hmm, yes, I don't entirely understand the logic with Java packages. Especially when there are sources available, it seems logical to me to call this package -bin to differentiate, regardless of Java or not.

SamLukeYes commented on 2022-04-23 02:47 (UTC)

@Rhinoceros I see the guidelines here. It says

Packages that use prebuilt deliverables, when the sources are available, must use the -bin suffix.

However, I didn't notice the next sentence, which says

An exception to this is with Java.

Then using the official binary releases would be OK for a Java package without the -bin suffix, perhaps :p

Rhinoceros commented on 2022-04-23 00:32 (UTC)

@SamLukeYes Good point. I did have a vague memory that -bin suffixes are only required if there is an alternative package that builds from source. i.e. if the "from-source" package does not exist yet, then there is no need to name this package igv-bin, and it's fine to call it igv. However, I can't seem to find this now, and perhaps my memory fails me. In fact, I can't find any guidelines in the Arch wiki or anywhere official.

Upstream source code is available for this package. I suppose this package should have a -bin suffix, or be built from source.

Thanks for your contribution!
