使用sbt-native-packager和ScalaFXML进行宏扩展时发生异常

Question

I have a small project on github that I created to explore ScalaFx and a few other things I want to use on a bigger project. For now, it includes a single sub-project, which is a simple calculator written using ScalaFX and ScalaFXML.

The project builds and runs fine using the SBT command calculator/run .

I'm now trying to package it using sbt-native-packager. I have added a simplistic project called "exemple-cli" (from sbt-native-packager's documentation), which packages fine with exemple-cli/stage (I get the expected result in exemple-cli/target/universal/stage). However, when I run the command calculator/stage , I get the following error :

Apparently, there is an error with the macro used by ScalaFXML to generate proxy classes for controllers, but this only occurs when packaging with sbt-native-packager and not when just compiling with SBT... Does anyone have any idea what could cause this?

Looks like SI-8771, which is a regression from 2.11.1 to 2.11.2. The workaround is to either downgrade to 2.11.2 or to change the code of the macro according to the details provided in comments to https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-8771 .
