5 years ago KOMA uses its own option handling which conflicts with xkeyval called by nomencl. Therefore you need to process KOMA options before calling nomencl. This works
\documentclass{scrartcl}
\KOMAoption{parskip=half*}
\usepackage{nomencl}
\begin{document}
\end{document}I will add to the docs

5 years ago Brilliant, I will retry tomorrow and will reach out to the KOMA guys whether this could be made idiot-safe because in our composed document structure it won't be that easy to swap.

5 years ago By the way, are you using TeX at Siemens? If yes, I wonder why I do not see Siemens here: http://tug.org/instmem.html

5 years ago Yes, we are. We are generating technical engineering documents, mostly for clients. I cannot speak for the company, since someone with "power" has to complete the process. But I will raise this in my team, maybe we can get a badge up there.

5 years ago I can confirm that the following works:
\documentclass{scrartcl}
\KOMAoption{parskip=half*}
\usepackage{nomencl}
\begin{document}
\end{document}Strangely, if I remove the empty line between KOMAOption and usepackage, the system gives me:
This is XeTeX, Version 3.14159265-2.6-0.99999 (TeX Live 2018) (preloaded format=xelatex)

5 years ago @borisveytsman I have contacted Markus Kohm. The depicted change works only because of a trick. The correct usage is:
\documentclass{scrartcl}
\usepackage{nomencl}
\KOMAoptions{parskip=half*}% beachte das "s" am Ende von \KOMAoptions
\begin{document}
\end{document}or
\documentclass{scrartcl}
\usepackage{nomencl}
\KOMAoption{parskip}{half*}% beachte die Aufspaltung in zwei Argumente
\begin{document}
\end{document}The workaround works because \KOMAoption uses \KOMAoptions internally and \par of the following empty line is passed as second argument to \KOMAoption.
Please update the README for the correct syntax.

5 years ago Thanks! So it was a KOMA problem after all...

5 years ago Right, Markus added an error message when \KOMAoption{key=value} is used.

No, it was not a KOMA-Script problem it was a user mistake.
Just pulled 5.0 via tlmgr and our documents broke due to the changes.
I receive now:
Pulled KOMA-Script 3.25 from Tex Live repo, no change. Manually restored nomencl to 4.2 in texmf-dist makes it work again:
Here is the MWE to reproduce this:
FWIW, we are running off FreeBSD 11.2-STABLE.
