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.

I updated the package to 10.3.1. Unfortunately, the installer now runs xdg-icon-resource a bunch of times, which results in some installation errors. However, Mathematica still seems to run fine, so I submitted a bug report to Wolfram and updated the package. The installer error is: Installation failed. See /home/k/build/mathematica/pkg/mathematica/opt/Mathematica/InstallErrors The InstallErrors file contains: xdg-icon-resource: No writable system icon directory found. ... around 30 copies of the above line mkdir: cannot create directory '/applications-merged': Permission denied xdg-desktop-menu: No writable system menu directory found.

Oops, thanks! I fixed the PKGBUILD. For those who don't want to reinstall, you can change the Exec and TryExec lines in /usr/share/applications/wolfram-mathematica10.desktop to point to /usr/bin/Mathematica.

The Exec fields in the .desktop file are broken, since the wrong path for the executable is considered in the creation process. It defaults to the build directory and not to /usr/bin.

Did you check to see what command is being launched when you "clicked in the applications"?

Blanchet commented on 2015-08-07 21:13 (UTC)

I've just run makepkg -s and pacman -U and it installed without any issue, thanks. However, I'm still curious why using pacaur did not work. Off topic, the program runs then immediately exits when clicked in the applications but works like a charm when started from the command line. Any thoughts?

kjslag commented on 2015-08-06 23:02 (UTC)

@Blanchet Does makepkg work?

Blanchet commented on 2015-08-06 22:45 (UTC)

Using pacaur, at first the update said "no such file", so I moved the .sh file to tmp/pacaur/mathematica; but now, after having moved the file, it returns this error /tmp/pacaurtmp-jb/mathematica/src/Mathematica_10.2.0_LINUX.sh: line 265: exec: -t: invalid option exec: usage: exec [-cl] [-a name] [command [arguments ...]] [redirection ...] :: mathematica cleaning skipped :: failed to build mathematica package(s) Any thoughts?

That's funny. I guess Wolfram updated their package without updating the version number. I guess I'll do the same.

md5sum is incorrect (1945ef3bb486b1091371128dd337aa19).

Oops, thanks! I changed the desktop file and included some Categories. I didn't update the pkgrel.
