  Programming Lang: Scala, Java
  Description     : Scala 2.13 compiler and standard library

 Scala is a programming language that scales with you, from small
 scripts to large multiplatform applications.
 .
 This package provides the Scala 2.13 compiler, standard library and
 tools. It installs next to the scala package (Scala 2.12): every jar
 and command is versioned (scalac-2.13, scala-2.13, ...), and
 /usr/bin/scala is managed by update-alternatives.

- Why is this package useful? Scala 2.13 is the current Scala 2 series,
  the one most Scala libraries and applications target, and Scala 3
  needs it to build its standard library. Debian only has Scala 2.11,
  moving to 2.12 (https://salsa.debian.org/java-team/scala/-/merge_requests/2).
- How is it built? Without sbt: once from upstream's pinned 2.13.17
  compiler (build profile pkg.scala.stage0, no prebuilt jar in the
  source), then by itself; see debian/README.source.
- Maintenance: in the Debian Java team. I need a sponsor.
