Thank you for this package. I have found a mistake. In the git repository there is a service file with the additional extension .gen and in the PKBuild only the service file in line 49 is used. Please correct it. Thx. I have now installed it manually via the git repository. Great program.

Please do no use sudo in the PKGBUILD, it's a security risk.

This line does not belong in the PKGBUILD but rather it's configuration, because it depends on the system the package is built, which could be different of the one it is installed. I suppose you could leave a note to the user to run that line, or it should go in post_install()

@krakenfury I didn't implement a way to change that, I'll add that tonight and comment back when it's ready.

Edit: Update pkgbuild, also added option to define an alternative profiles directory using this in your /etc/macfand.conf:
profileDir = "/opt/macfand-git/machines/";

Loading profiles is broken:

Modify PKGBUILD:

...
4 pkgname=macfand
...
39 package() {
40         cd macfand
41         mkdir -p ${pkgdir}/usr/local/${pkgname}
42         cp -rf * ${pkgdir}/usr/local/${pkgname}
...

This lets macfand find the profiles where it's looking for them. Didn't see a way to configure macfand to look in /opt/macfand-git instead.
