To get this working on recent builds, you can:
- git clone the git URL above
- Edit PKGBUILD and...
- ...update pkgver to be "current"
- ...change source URL to "${pkgname}-${pkgver}.deb::https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/${pkgname}_${pkgver}_amd64.deb"
- ...add this additional command with the other installs: install -Dm644 "${srcdir}/lib/systemd/system/${pkgname}@.service" "${pkgdir}/usr/lib/systemd/system/${pkgname}@.service"
- run updpkgsums to update the package checksums
- run makepkg -s to build
- run pacman -U *.zst to install

Thanks @frealgagu for packaging this, @nightuser for the existing session patch and @Brinsky for the instructions.
I've compiled both instructions with screenshots and added it to my blog if anyone is having issues with the install. Otherwise, just follow the instructions in the comments by @Brinsky from 2019-12-06 13:58.

Here's how I got this working with the new web app (remotedesktop.google.com):
crd --setup
~/.chrome-remote-desktop-session
DISPLAY= /opt/google/chrome-remote-desktop/start-host --code="<UNIQUE_CODE>" --redirect-url="<https://remotedesktop.google.com/_/oauthredirect>" --name=
crd --start
