I'm sorry about your issues. I guess I should have told you to simply copy your /usr/local/plexmediaserver/Library directory to /opt/plexmediaserver if you were going to upgrade. And I supposed edit the startup script. .. I did post that's all the difference that I changed with this and the previous version. But yes.. sorry, you should uninstall first. Then reinstall. This is my first time at maintaining a package and I am making obvious newb mistakes. I would be happy to step down if someone else wants to take over. Apparently there weren't any volunteers before.

@tmoore WTF man? I spent 2 hours configuring my plex media server last night, and now you changed the location and all the configuration is lost, I have to do it all over again. That's not fair! It's my time you're wasting with radical changes like this. At least create a script to copy the files from /usr/local/plexmediaserver to the /opt/plexmediaserver location, and remove the /usr/local/plexmediaserver folder after that. Not to mention that the server won't autostart anymore with systemctl enable/start command... wtf? I had to go to /opt/plexmediaserver and start it manually from the start.sh file.

Thanks for the comment jcasper.. you are absolutely right. I will fix that.

I think this should go in /opt/plexmediaserver, not /usr/local/plexmediaserver. /usr/local is for stuff I build myself outside of package management. /opt/ is for things like plexmediaserver. This is supported by https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_filesystem_hierarchy as well as FHS (http://www.pathname.com/fhs/).
