This pkg is build by upstream with Slicer_STORE_SETTINGS_IN_APPLICATION_HOME_DIR=ON, we just repack the binary. The settings and extensions files are stored in the application home dir (aka /opt/ here). If you need to modify the settings or install extensions, try 3dslicer, which is built from the source with Slicer_STORE_SETTINGS_IN_APPLICATION_HOME_DIR=OFF, so ordinary user could save their application settings and extensions files in user home dir.

@hottea looks like this aspect of Slicer is permanently borked for system-level installs. See bug report here: https://github.com/Slicer/Slicer/issues/5546

It looks like we'd have to figure out a way to deal with extensions and extension updates through the PKGBUILD too due to these changes.

To other users looking to get around this while still managing Slicer with pacman: you can modify the install path in the PKGBUILD to put it where ever you like in your ~ and then chown it to belong to your user account. (As a side note, that approach is also a good way to deal with Anaconda on Arch so you may already be familiar with the idea).

@liamtimms This should be reported to upstream, not here.

On the newest version I am hitting an issue with extensions. Extension Manager says:

"Extensions install directory does NOT exist: /opt/3dslicer/NA-MIC/Extensions-29738

Check that 3D Slicer is properly installed."

I don't think this happened with the previous versions. Not sure what changed in this new release.

Note for the 4.11 release I needed to update the checksum for the 3dslicer archive in the PKGBUILD:

sha512sum 3dslicer-4.11.20200930.tar.gz
0928f138c6c6b002a959c70eccad61c321ffc77289bf7813c20e265bea337119e55550cc1af6afd564877766e2e7b4d8332e673d894a251fef6144a2f27387a4  3dslicer-4.11.20200930.tar.gz
