I'll leave a note for those who are having trouble starting FAH after updating. You should do pacman -Rs foldingathome and install again. This will create the fah-client user.

It would make more sense to update the foldingathome PKGBUILD instead of creating this one. The foldingathome PKGBUILD is maintained by a TU but it has been out-of date for 6 months. You might want to report/ask for help on the aur ML.

Updated the package to include a systemd script and to fix the download error. Thanks to luolimao for all the help!

Also, the systemd script appears to work fine; it should be all right to add to the package.

After googling a bit, and learning about the DLAGENTS option, the error can be fixed by adding the line DLAGENTS=("https::/usr/bin/curl -k -o %o %u") to the PKGBUILD. Although for some reason the wiki fails to mention this under "PKGBUILD" or "Creating packages" but instead lists it under "Nonfree Applications Package Guidelines": https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Nonfree_Applications_Package_Guidelines

@luolimao The download error is caused by a certificate error on Stanford's servers. If you manually download the file, it should build with no problems. I put together a systemd script and uploaded it to here --> http://pastebin.com/bW4CakV4 Copy it to /etc/systemd/system/foldingathome-v7.service and tell me if it works before I add it to the package.

Also, the file doesn't download for me (x86_64); see error: https://gist.github.com/3805087

Can you add a systemd script (since rc.d scripts are being phased out)?

I fixed up the PKGBUILD so it should work with i686 and x86_64 with out any issues. Let me know if there are any more problems.
