Thanks @vitaliikuzhdin. Appreciate the flexibility. I'll keep the package as is. Cheers!

@stiermid, I think I'll drop the symlink then with the next update.

Hi @vitaliikuzhdin! Thanks for reaching out. Since your package is specifically for MATLAB, maybe keeping matlab-mpm is clearer for the users. If you're willing to drop the mpm symlink, I'd love to keep mpm for the Meta Package Manager. Let me know what you think!

Maintainer of matlab-mpm here. I was wondering what the best course of action would be to resolve the conflict caused by both packages installing the executable as /usr/bin/mpm. I've always renamed it to matlab-mpm and provided mpm as a symlink because I suspected this kind of conflict could happen, given that there are only so many three-letter combinations. But now that I've found this package, one of us will probably have to rename the executable completely. What do you think?

The AUR build currently fails because two transitive dependencies fail their check() test suites:

1. python-beartype: test_door_is_bearable_warnings fails on retry due to a memoization bug. Filed upstream: https://github.com/beartype/beartype/issues/631. Also commented on the python-beartype AUR package with a suggested workaround (pytest -k "not test_door_is_bearable_warnings").

2. python-boltons: test suite fails with PytestRemovedIn9Warning treated as error under pytest 9.

These two failures cascade through the dependency chain: python-beartype blocks python-click-extra, python-boltons also blocks python-click-extra, and python-click-extra blocks meta-package-manager.

I'm the upstream maintainer of meta-package-manager. The package itself is fine: it installs and runs correctly once the dependencies build. This is purely an AUR test suite issue in transitive dependencies.

Package version 5.21.0-1 may fail to build if extras/python-poetry is not installed. This is due to python-pyshacl@0.26.0 not declaring extras/python-poetry as a makedependency.

edit (2025-09-16@19.16-0800): After patching python-pyshacl@0.31.0's PKGBUILD and installing it, I've discovered python-uritools also fails to build due to errors in check(); "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cloup'". Joy.
