New package nim 2.0 using new package management rules

[levlan]

I use Manjaro linux distribution and updated nim-lang package through Manjaro’s package manager (pamac).
When I try to run a program, I get error: Error: cannot open '/usr/lib/nim/lib/system.nim
I checked and ‘system.nim’ is on ‘/usr/lib/nim/system.nim’ path, not as where vscodium is searching.

I asked on nim-lang forum and this is the reply i got:

Blockquote
This will be that package management changed from 2.0
pacman has worked around this by adding a symlink

Does pacman work on manjaro? Surely pamac is a wrapper
You’ll need to file a bug report with your distro, you can link them to the updated packaging guidelines Packaging Nim

[Takakage]

The nim package is imported directly from Arch. The updated package is already in the Manjaro unstable channel.

pacman works in manjaro and exists by default.
pamac is not a wrapper for pacman … it is an ALPM frontend like pacman.
(though it still relies on some pacman configs, and uses the pacman log, etc)

But yeah - the package is from Arch and should work exactly as it does there.
(though whether its properly ‘worked around’ could be another question)
