Arch Linux User Repository

@fow0ryl See here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/zoraxy-git And you are the Co-maintainer.

Because I have needed some changes I have created a "git" PKGBUILD. But I'm unable to publish it here, since I did never use git and the arch linux manual is a desaster for noobs ... But here it is ... Maybe you are willing to support 2 versions ;)

@fow0ryl Thanks for your feedback, added it.

Thank you for this pkgbuild.

But I would like to have some improvements. Because zoraxy creates files and directorys in cwd, I think that it is a good idea to create a specific directory. I'm using /opt/zoraxy. Of course this directory should be created by the pkgbuild.

Next is to create a systemd zoraxy.service file like I did and put it into /usr/lib/systemd/system. It's a good idea to pipe output of zoraxy to systemd journal. But you will net a dedicated log file location too. And of course a working directory. Maybe it's useful to create a dedicated user / group to enhance security. I'm using root for testing purposes for now.
