If anyone could do me a favor. I've added a post-install script with the help of AirGamer whose been maintaining and adding to dev9 that in light of his newer improvements of the dev9 functionality and the rise of fanmade servers will force enable pcap functionality. As per https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=913891 all post-install scripts run in the install dir in a functional chroot environment as if it were in the main PKGBUILD.
For now, I've hardcoded the resulting folder structure/path as if it were generated in Vanilla Arch given we use Cmake detection and XDG to dictate paths aside from the plugins folder. I'm certain this will not change but just in case. If there's any error's especially about the paths post in here and we'll see what we can do to amend the issue.
TLDR: If you see error's about a setpcap command post in here
