We are glad to announce the first release candidate of a new
maintenance release in our old 2.8.x series: Scala 2.8.2 RC1
is now available from our Download Page, at:

http://www.scala-lang.org/downloads

This release addresses some issues present in Scala 2.8.1, and
includes the changes needed to make it compatible with the new
Scala IDE for Eclipse. This maintenance release is intended to
be fully binary compatible with the existing version 2.8.1.

Please help us with the testing of this release candidate, and
let us know of any binary incompatibility issues, or other
problems. The list of improvements in Scala 2.8.2 RC1 is
available below.

The Scala 2.8.2 distribution
==============================

This Release Candidate is made available for testing purposes
only and is not intended for production environments. We will
wait at least two weeks before issuing a final release, in order
to allow developers and testers to send us their feedback.

What is new?
============

The 2.8.2 release of Scala includes many bug fixes and
improvements, in particular:

* Added compatibility with the new presentation compiler,
required by the new Scala IDE for Eclipse

* Fixes for:

https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-1591
https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-4759
https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-3838
https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-4067
https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-3946

* Improvements and fixes related to signatures, nested
objects, and actors

* Other fixes and improvements (see the complete list below)

The following changes have been included:

24385, 24466, 24689, 24691, 24916, 24918, 24955, 25173, 25174,
25175, 25176, 25177, 25178, 25179, 25180, 25181, 25182, 25183,
25184, 25185, 25186, 25187, 25188, 25189, 25190, 25191, 25192,
25193, 25194, 25195, 25196, 25197, 25198, 25199, 25200, 25201,
25211, 25252, 25291, 25378.

(see https://codereview.scala-lang.org/fisheye/changelog/scala-svn?cs
=XXXXX)

Note: at this time we are phasing out our old sbaz package
manager in order to move to newer tools like Maven, sbt, etc.
Sbaz is currently deprecated, and it will no longer be available
as part of the Scala distribution in the future.

Re: Scala 2.8.2 RC1
+1 for all the great work here.  Thanks for continuing to put these releases out Toni.
I'm happy to see the continuing support for 2.8 in the sense that it shows a growing maturity in the platform.

Re: Scala 2.8.2 RC1
Is there any hope of getting fixes backported for https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-3687 and other, related, Enumeration bugs?
These are particularly nasty regressions from 2.8.0.

only and is not intended for production environments. We will
wait at least two weeks before issuing a final release, in order
to allow developers and testers to send us their feedback.


What is new?
============

The 2.8.2 release of Scala includes many bug fixes and
improvements, in particular:

* Added compatibility with the new presentation compiler,
 required by the new Scala IDE for Eclipse

* Fixes for:

 https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-1591
 https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-4759
 https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-3838
 https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-4067
 https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-3946

* Improvements and fixes related to signatures, nested
 objects, and actors

* Other fixes and improvements (see the complete list below)

The following changes have been included:

24385, 24466, 24689, 24691, 24916, 24918, 24955, 25173, 25174,
25175, 25176, 25177, 25178, 25179, 25180, 25181, 25182, 25183,
25184, 25185, 25186, 25187, 25188, 25189, 25190, 25191, 25192,

Note: at this time we are phasing out our old sbaz package
manager in order to move to newer tools like Maven, sbt, etc.
Sbaz is currently deprecated, and it will no longer be available
as part of the Scala distribution in the future.

I tried to install the new version with sbaz upgrade:

asux:~/proj/mini/forum > sbaz upgrade
Refreshing list of available packages...
Planning to install scala/2.9.0.1...
Planning to install scala-devel/2.9.0.1...
Planning to install scala-documentation/2.9.0.1...
Planning to install scala-library/2.9.0.1...
Planning to install scala-tool-support/2.9.0.1...
Planning to install scalacheck/1.9...
Installing...

But then:

asux:~/proj/mini/forum > scala
:3: error: object List is not a value
List(1) map (_ + 1)
^

Where shall I begin to search for an error?

That means it thinks "List" is "java.util.List". It could be other
things called List, but that's the heavy favorite. I don't know how you
might have arrived at that station though. There are a lot of command
line options which will tell you things, most of which will give some
indication of how that's happening. Try -Xprint:all, -Ylog-classpath,
many more if those don't do it. scalac -help, scalac -X, scalac -Y if
you're feeling nutty.

Well - I thought I tried sbaz to update before, and didn't make the step
from 2.8.something to 2.9 - maybe it was 2.9.0-RC why it didn't. But I
thought it would stay at 2.8 until I tell it to update to 2.9, but sbaz
installed the 2.9.0.1 version now.

I have a symbolic link /opt/scala -> /opt/scala-2.8 but that was
overriden with the 2.9er version. So I renamed it to scala-2.9,
downloaded the -2.8-tar.gz, and installed that by hand. Startet scala:
> 2.8.2.RC1 - uff; wonderful.

made a cd to scala-2.9/bin, startet ./scala: scala 2.9.0.1 wonderful.

Problem solved, but don't know what the problem was. There is no
startscript or symbolic link - just /opt/scala/bin is in the PATH.

Re: Scala 2.8.2 RC1
Just wanted to note that sbaz is deprecated.  So, unfortunately, while I really want to help debug sbaz issues, it's for a system that will be removed most likely in the next release.
