ReferenceError: Error #1065

I think at this point everyone is advised to use Scratch 3 (AUR: scratch3, scratch3-bin).

If I understand correctly, that new version is backwards-compatible with Scratch 2 projects.

@AreaDenial: assuming that scratch2 is in this folder:

/opt/airapps/scratch2/

and that after scratch2 was launched at least once, the folder

.appdata/edu.media.mit.Scratch2Editor/Local Store/

in your home dir was created. There should be 4 folders and 2 binary files in it:

#SharedObjects/  
en/  
static/  
www/  
helpVersion   (bin file: 13 o)  
swvb.init     (bin file:  5 o)

But only one is created by this version of scratch2:

#SharedObjects/

Here is a way to retrieve all the lacking stuff there.
You'll need package "vim" installed in order to use xxd.
(xxd is needed to recreate the 2 binary files).
Scratch 2 must be closed. Open a terminal:

cd ~/.appdata/edu.media.mit.Scratch2Editor/"Local Store/"
rm "#SharedObjects"/Scratch.swf/*
mkdir www
cp /opt/airapps/scratch2/www/* www/
unzip /opt/airapps/scratch2/static_tips/en.zip
unzip /opt/airapps/scratch2/static_tips/static.zip

echo "0000000: 0007 3435 382e 302e 3100 0265 6e" | xxd -r - helpVersion
echo "0000000: 0003 3436 31" | xxd -r - swvb.init

Then start scratch2, it should ask you if you'd like to help
improve Scratch. If not, close it and then:

cd ~/.appdata/edu.media.mit.Scratch2Editor/"Local Store/"
rm "#SharedObjects"/Scratch.swf/*

and try again.

I got the package installed, but when the application launches I just get an empty white window. Suggestions?

@songl: lib32-libxt already in depends of x86_64.

songl commented on 2020-05-18 10:29 (UTC)

Now requires lib32-libxt

Scratch has just been released as version 3.0: https://scratch.mit.edu/download

FAQ says:

When will you have Scratch Desktop for Linux? Scratch Desktop on Linux is currently not supported. We are working with partners and the open-source community to determine if there is a way we can support Linux in the future. Stay tuned!

The latest version that works for me is 458. If I can run a newer version then I will update the package.
