I think this should go in /opt/plexmediaserver, not /usr/local/plexmediaserver. /usr/local is for stuff I build myself outside of package management. /opt/ is for things like plexmediaserver. This is supported by https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_filesystem_hierarchy as well as FHS (http://www.pathname.com/fhs/).

The plexmediaserver.install does create a user and group. I guess if you've installed an older version there could be discrepancies. That's why I've been doing uninstalls/reinstalls (and making sure your library dir is backed up) TBD is making this thing much smarter on upgrades and such. right now I just wanted to get it fairly consistent and useable.

Reinstalling and wiping the remnants of the old install seems to do the trick.

Nope all is broken. Reinstalling.

Your install script needs to add the group "plex" as well I think. Adding the group makes it work fine for me.

I just updated and now I cant start it. Error is May 29 19:27:28 antiva start_pms[15503]: su: user plex does not exist May 29 19:27:28 antiva systemd[1]: plexmediaserver.service: control process exited, code=exited status=1 May 29 19:27:28 antiva systemd[1]: Failed to start Plex Media Server for Linux. May 29 19:27:28 antiva systemd[1]: Unit plexmediaserver.service entered failed state. Can I just create the user? And group?

Do you mean this? https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository Installation is just like any other AUR package. Additional configuration is done by modifying the /etc/conf.d/plexmediaserver file.

Can you maybe put up an wiki on how to install this and configure?

Your deps are messed up: depends=('rsync avahi') Makes pacman look for the dependency 'rsync avahi'. It should be: depends=('rsync' 'avahi')
