Verified updating to 4.0.6 works, with the updated wiredtiger.
Here's changes I'd recommend considering: 1. Remove usr/bin/install_compass. It's a python script to install compass, which is a GUI for working with mongodb. But, the script detects the OS, and if linux, the distribution. It doesn't run on Arch, saying it's an unsupported distribution. There's an AUR package, mongodb-compass. 2. Per namcap: snappy, openssl, libsasl, and lsb-release can be removed from depends. The first 3 are satisfied by other dependencies, and the last is not needed. 3. optdepends of libpcap can be removed. Community listed it for "mongosniff", which was replaced by mongoreplay in 3.4. mongoreplay is part of mongodb-tools, and is listed in its depends.
I've also asked felixonmars if mongodb-tools should be dropped to the AUR, for the same licensing reason, and also so the same maintainer can have both, to keep their version numbers in sync. If you're willing, perhaps keep an eye out for that and pick it up as well. (In case you do, per namcap: libsasl and openssl can be removed from its depends, being satisfied by other dependencies.)

If you have a pre-sandybridge CPU or an ARMv8 sbc, you can use mongodb44
If you'd like to stay in the V5.0 branch, you can use mongodb50

The
mongo
utility will be removed in future releases. Switching tomongosh
is recommended.
