The /opt/quake3 link stops any quake3 data or mod package from installing:

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
quake3-cpma: /opt/quake3 exists in filesystem (owned by quake3e-git)

You should install the binaries to /opt/quake3 This will still allow for multiple source ports to be installed, since the binaries are named quake3e.

Seems this way it does not work. It gets overwritten.

I think it would be best if you provide "quake3" with this, and put binaries into /opt/quake3 instead of /opt/quake3e

You can look how ioquake3 source port done this: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=ioquake3-git

I was testing by first installing quake3e-git and then quake3-data-steam package which provides pak0.pk3 via Steam. Mods does deploy pk3 files in similar way.

I have added a symlink. Can you check if that works for you?

Could you please update your package to support quake3 mods which are available on AUR?

Here is the list of mods: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/?K=quake3-

Mods are usually installed to /opt/quake3/ so you would need to install your packages binaries to that location
