I am running an up-to-date archlinux (as of yesterday). I just installed this latest crashplan-pro. However the client window (CrashPlanDesktop) just shows as an empty box. I don't see any particular errors in the ui logs. The last thing it says is 2020-08-14T20:07:59.445Z - info routes.js: onChange: previousPath=/login with params=none 2020-08-14T20:07:59.445Z - info routes.js: onChange: nextPath=/login with params=none
Before installing this crashplan, I was running crashplan directly from code42. When I updated it to 8.2, I started seeing this problem so I decided to try the AUR version.
I installed with makepkg -si to make sure I got any new dependencies, but no luck.
Service is running but not backing up anything. I believe it needs that first login in order to work.
I'm connecting remotely via ssh -X since there is no desktop installed on the archlinux machine (X is, of course, installed).
I also tried it more directly with DISPLAY=<othercomputer>.0 and get the same thing.

I'm going to be disowning this package soon. I'm moving away from crashplan and have no interest in maintaining this package, and dealing with usage issues, when I wont be using it.
I'll keep it up to date during the coming months as needed, but if no one else shows up, I plan to disown it at the end of October.

@gadicc, I added some pacman hooks to handle setting/unsetting the immutable flag:
Sets immutable flag after install/upgrade:
Unsets immutable flag before upgrade/remove:
