I'd like to update my Plex server because my Android/iPad clients no longer find the one currently installed. Can this package please be updated? Thanks!

First: thanks for the nice work! I send you an updated PKGBUILD for version 9.5.2

A (very) quick google search remind you the existence of [multilib] for lib32-*

install fails as there's a bunch of dependencies that get added for x86_64 architectures: depends+=('lib32-libxml2' 'lib32-sqlite3' 'lib32-boost-libs' 'lib32-curl') of these, only lib32-boost-libs seems to exist (and even that's marked as being out of date). any suggestions? right now, i'm just attempting the install without these libraries just to see what happens, but i'm getting no further than "./start.sh: line 10: ./Plex Media Server: No such file or directory". any suggestions?

You can change the path of the library in the configuration file pretty easily to be honest. I'm not sure I see how its difficult to change, my Library is in a protected folder under home you just need to set the path correctly. You'll note there is a comment pointing to a configuration file in /etc Now, the plex server probably should run as a separate user, but since its a daemon I don't find that to be such a big issue honestly. Switching the user isn't all that tough, I'm Lazy, but you would probably need to ensure all of the permissions are correct so that user is able to execute and read the libraries. I suppose printing to stdout might annoy some people if you are not headless. My system is, so I never see it when I shell in.

The init script is a very poor one, I agree. Feel free to send me a better one...

The deamon prints to stdout (when from the console). When started with rc.d start plexmediaserver the default library location is /Library (it tries to be ${HOME}/Library but ${HOME} isn't defined for a service). Is it possible to set which user:group the server runs as? It now runs as root and that's not right.

Everything works great for me. Make sure you build lib32-boost with the current version. You may need to update the sha512 hash for lib32-boost when you run the build and switch mirrors.

Error staring plexserver. Add rsync to dependences sh: /usr/bin/rsync: No such file or directory sh: /usr/bin/rsync: No such file or directory sh: /usr/bin/rsync: No such file or directory sh: /usr/bin/rsync: No such file or directory

Works perfectly when started using start.sh :-) However, - everything is installed under /opt instead of /usr/lib; - the rc.d init script and a config file that it refers to are not being installed; and - the rc.d init script doesn't seem to kill plex's child processes.
