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.

@JP-Ellis @hzhangxyz espeak should not be a dependency of Mathematica. Like I mentioned in one of the previous comment, this error only happens because the file '/opt/Mathematica/SystemFiles/Libraries/Linux-x86-64/libespeak.so' that ships with Mathematica is wrongly removed via the duplicate-libs.txt file. If you modify duplicate-libs.txt and do not remove so many libraries that ship with Mathematica, then there is no need to make up for these included libraries with external dependencies.

@PlaidPenguin @miro86 I still have no idea how this error happens, and I am unable to replicate it. I have installed Mathematica without error on several different machines without issue, so I don't even know where to start with this bug.

@hzhangxyz This is already a optional dependency. I do not have everything included as compulsory dependencies because most people will only use a subset of what Mathematica offers.

PlaidPenguin commented on 2019-03-07 21:23 (UTC)

@JP-Ellis I also get the same error as miro86 and mpr. Has someone found a solution to this problem?

hzhangxyz commented on 2019-03-07 04:44 (UTC)

I didn't install espeak so mathematica report error since the library has already been removed via duplicate-libs.txt

run pacman -Foq awk -F / '{print "/usr/lib/"$7}' duplicate-libs.txt | sort | uniq and get:

community/espeak community/libpng12 community/portaudio core/glib2 core/gmp core/libffi core/libssh2 core/openssl-1.0 core/zlib extra/cairo extra/freetype2 extra/glu extra/harfbuzz extra/openmp extra/pango extra/pixman

I think this should be put into depend list

I get a similar error as miro86. There's no xterm error but I do get the error of line 120. Did you manage to fix it @miro86?

JP-Ellis commented on 2019-01-22 03:18 (UTC)

@miro86 Unfortunately, I really don't know what could be the cause of your issue as I have never encountered it. Have you tried using a different terminal by any chance? Are you using an AUR helper and having you tried using makepkg? Sorry I can't be of more help.

Virtualmorpher commented on 2019-01-19 22:07 (UTC)

@JP-Ellis: the installer seems to work, it loads then asks for the installation directory. Is there a solution with regards to xterm?

JP-Ellis commented on 2019-01-18 03:02 (UTC)

@miro86 Sorry for the late reply. I'm not entirely sure why you are receiving this error; but it seems like the Mathematica installer itself isn't working? Have you tried running the installer manually (just to see if it loads). I'm also wondering whether this is an issue with xterm.

I'm getting the following error:

...

I've got around 27GB free space in my home directory, so the problem seems to be somewhere else.

new around here, just wanna say thank you.
