Hello Rogério, thanks for your interest in the PLM. I hope that you will like it.
The programmatic interface to the scala compiler was rewamped between scala 2.9 and 2.10. I tend to think that the scala version in debian should be updated, instead of extending PLM to support ancient versions of external software. According to #706633, quite a lot of people think that scala 2.10 should be packaged. I was planning to give it a try, but I didn't find the time yet. As for the versionned library of scala, there is a wontfix bug against scala where the maintainers say that there is no need for such a thing. Thanks again for your interest, Mt.
