Arch Linux User Repository

Oh right, that's because home-assistant was still using DynamicUser at the time. Thanks, fixed.

So the issue here is that this package puts the files into /var/lib/private/hass/custom_components/ while hass expects them in /var/lib/hass/custom_components/ The solution is

sudo cp -r /var/lib/private/hass/custom_components/ /var/lib/hass/
sudo chown -R hass:hass /var/lib/hass/custom_components/

@AlD Could you correct this?

Hi,

I've installed this package and updated permissions as suggested. Restarted the home-assistant.service but do not have HACS listed on the Settings > Integrations page nor is it listed under Add Integration.

Any pointers on what to do would be welcome.

Thanks in advance.

@elnappo I think I solved the issue with the following patch, using systemd-tmpfiles, which gets executed via pacman hooks anyways:

Had to manually change ownership of /var/lib/hass/custom_components/ with chown -R hass:hass /var/lib/hass/custom_components/.
