Description:

The package description is "A Java-interoperable language with object-oriented and functional features." This is incorrect; sbaz is not a language at all. It is the Scala Bazaar software package manager for Scala. Scala is the Java-interoperable language, etc., not sbaz.

Other information:
I think sbaz really ought to be merged into the scala package; see  FS#20293 :
[scala] 2.8.0-1 is missing sbaz
http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/20293

But if there's a good reason for keeping them separate, then at least the package description for sbaz ought to be correct.

Steps to reproduce:
1. View package details:
http://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/any/sbaz/

OR

1. $ pacman -Ss sbaz
community/sbaz 2.0-1
A Java-interoperable language with object-oriented and functional features
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Fixed
Additional comments about closing:  I prefer don't merge it with scala because of they are different projects.
