Dear Maintainer,

When installing scala package it seems to not ship the syntax highlighting
files that are available in the scala repo.

for example scala.lang file should be added for gtk highlighting.

see https://github.com/scala/scala-dist/tree/master/tool-support/src/gedit for details.

here are also other things that may ship with the scala package:

The mentioned files are not part of Scala sources
(https://github.com/scala/scala).
Thus, they can't be shipped by the Scala package.

I recommend you to send an RFP[1] bug instead.

Ideally the syntax file should be installed by gedit. One may want to
view/edit scala files with the highlighting enabled even if scala isn't
installed.

The scala.lang file is now hosted here:
