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.

@Firnen Read the PKGBUILD, there is an explanation on how to obtain that file and where to place it.

A file appears to be missing for the build.

@JP-Undercover The issue you have is most likely because you are running out of space. Unfortunately, Mathematica's installer doesn't check for available space and if your drive fills up, Mathematica simply doesn't install create all the files (hence why wolframscript is missing). With the recent updates, I think you'll actually need more than 18GiB (I think the latest version needs 26.4GiB of free space unpack, install and then re-pack everything).

@JP-Ellis i have at least 18GB avalible on my system, i'm trying to edit the PKGBUILD by using yay --editmenu mathematica but it's not working. I've deleted all the cache and tried again, same error shows up, i'm trying to install normally by simply using yay -S mathematica.

EDIT: Installing using yay -S mathematica shows that i in fact don't have enough space, disregard what i said it turns out it was just me being incompetent, thanks for the tip!

@JP-Undercover Please make sure the directory in which the package archive is being built has enough space.

It shouldn't be installed in your actual system, but is taking up a lot of space in /home/undercover/.cache/yay/mathematica/ in your case.

Installing this package on Manjaro ended up with this:

Installation failed. See
/home/undercover/.cache/yay/mathematica/pkg/mathematica/opt/Mathematica/InstallErrors.

  -> Errors related to 'xdg-icon-resource' and 'xdg-desktop-menu' are to be expected during Mathematica's installation.
  -> Fixing symbolic links
rm: cannot remove 'wolframscript': No such file or directory
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package().
    Aborting...
Error making: mathematica

The file InstallErrors is empty.

Any news about the Wolfram Engine AUR package?

JP-Ellis commented on 2019-06-09 00:28 (UTC)

@bryango Thanks! I've updated the PKGBUILD. Note that I have not updated the release number as this is such a minor change and most people will get this at the next update.

bryango commented on 2019-06-08 13:45 (UTC)

@JP-Ellis Adding StartupWMClass=Mathematica to the desktop file will greatly improve the window management experience (e.g. the window will now use themed icons set in the system). Strongly recommended!
