@all: Before I get any more complaint, just so we're clear, this package works, if it doesn't there is sth wrong on your side, whether or not you are responsible for it, I can't tell in advance. I have successfully migrated an existing plex library (which didn't even come from an arch box but from a Synology NAS), and did 3 fresh installs on 3 different machines, all of them worked out of the box. I also have another install with a completely different approach than what I did with this package, using systemctl --user and the library residing in ~/.plexms, so as to mirror ~/.plexht, which works without issues as well. Although on the slight off chance there really is sth wrong with the package, which I highly doubt, I'd rather not get assaulted for it. I happen to have as much patience as a bomb squad on a defusing intervention, and I will answer in kind.

And that my friend is why you will never be a packager. Those files are created by the software, they're not present on a fresh install, it is _NOT_ the package manager's job to deal with them. Period. Or would you like pacman to package your home directory? If you want babysitting, there's a good kindergarten out there called Ubuntu. Man, I love people raging when they don't know shit about the stuff they're talking about.

@alucryd are you on drugs? There should be no manual moving of installed packages after package was installed on system!! Thats the whole point of package managers, which can track where stuff is installed and what dependencies it needs. TLDR; Its not operators job to move files from /opt/plexmediaserver to /var/lib/plex, it's MAINTAINERS ONE! Sorry for rage post, but this really angers me!

Did you follow the migration instructions in the install message?

Hi, I was using plexmediaserver on Arch now for month without problems. After upgrading to plex-media-server somehow it seems, that the server is not starting or the weg gui cannot connect to the server. I can open the web gui with ip:32400/web but I cannot see any server. Any ideas?

Samleybrize: Yup, as written on the dedicated wiki page :)

I had to add the en_US.UTF-8 locale, otherwise the service refuse to start
