Thanks for the feedback, I accidentally pushed the wrong one which wasn't ready, I was working on both this and the binary package but had to work around a few teething issues with their early Linux releases.

I pushed a proper PKGBUILD now which at least 'works on my machine', but I found no documentation for the source build and there's still a fair bit of workaround happening so caveat emptor.

After moving the contents of /usr/lib/grayjay-git/arch-x64/ to /usr/lib/grayjay-git/, I'm still getting the following:

A fatal error was encountered. The library 'libhostpolicy.so' required to execute the application was not found in '/usr/lib/grayjay-git/'.
Failed to run as a self-contained app.
  - The application was run as a self-contained app because '/usr/lib/grayjay-git/Grayjay.ClientServer.runtimeconfig.json' was not found.
  - If this should be a framework-dependent app, add the '/usr/lib/grayjay-git/Grayjay.ClientServer.runtimeconfig.json' file and specify the appropriate framework.

The package installs and builds correctly, but the included launch script does not work:

$ grayjay-git 
The command could not be loaded, possibly because:
  * You intended to execute a .NET application:
      The application '/usr/lib/grayjay-git/Grayjay.ClientServer.dll' does not exist.
  * You intended to execute a .NET SDK command:
      No .NET SDKs were found.

Download a .NET SDK:

The problem is that the package was installed into /usr/lib/grayjay-git/arch-x64/, not /usr/lib/grayjay-git/ as the script expects.
