Packaging and build issues

[notEvil]

Hi!

Today I found this project, tried to build from master branch and ran into a single issue:

  bad class file: /home/arappold/.gradle/caches/modules-2/files-2.1/org.eclipse.platform/org.eclipse.core.runtime/3.27.0/d49fa0dcf0f5aa1e13dbfb25e47afd18d92487fa/org.eclipse.core.runtime-3.27.0.jar(/org/eclipse/core/runtime/Plugin.class)
    class file has wrong version 61.0, should be 55.0
    Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath.

Manually specifying the versions of org.eclipse... in ./gen.jdt/build.gradle solved it; see the patch below. I'm on Arch x86_64 with Openjdk 11 and 20 installed. Should I open an issue or is it related to my system configuration? (I'm no Java dev)

Then, while trying to setup tree-sitter-parser I decided to create Arch packages (PKGBUILD scripts) for gumtree and the tree-sitter bridge. Would you consider maintaining an Arch package on AUR, or give permission to do so?

Hi @notEvil and thanks for the feedback!

I created an issue for the first problem.

I am not planning to release packages other than on maven central for GumTree because it is difficult to maintain. However, it would be awesome to have such packages!
