Details

Description:
The /usr/bin/sbt script sets SBT_OPTS. Any value set by the user get's overwritten.

version sbt 1:0.13.2-1

Steps to reproduce:
export SBT_OPTS="-Dhttp.proxyHost=myhost"
sbt package

here the proxy is not used because SBT_OPTS is overridden in /usr/bin/sbt

A better way would be to add the setting of SBT_OPTS to /etc/profile/sbt.sh. The script /usr/bin/sbt can then rely on SBT_OPTS being set and the user can choose to add options to SBT_OPT by providing them in the .bashrc or any other logon-setting-script
This task depends upon

That would be: /etc/profile.d/sbt.sh

Plus: it would be good to add $JAVA_OPTS to the invocation of sbt as well. The script then becomes:

#!/bin/sh
java $SBT_OPTS $JAVA_OPTS -jar /usr/share/java/sbt/sbt-launch.jar "$@"

_JAVA_OPTIONS is already taken.

"Picked up _JAVA_OPTIONS: -Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=lcd -Dswing.aatext=true"
