Install screen.so using pacman on Arch Linux
pkgver if you want to install a different versionmakepkgpacman -U screen-desktop-1.2.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xzIt would be super cool to create a nice package and publish it to AUR. Can someone help?

Hey @lotia awesome! I am happy to help, but I am not sure if I can contribute more than the PKGBUILD above right now. :)
I am not sure if the PKGBUILD above is the proper way to do it and what else should be done before publishing.
If you already know how to do it, go ahead.

Found this gist via the Screen feedback website. I've created and pushed a package that relies on the Debian upstream: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/screen-desktop-bin/
The dependencies are as-is from the Debian package with a few marked as optional. I still think a lot of dependencies can be trimmed down, but this is just the first cut. I was also hoping to make it dependent on electron now that screen uses Electron 8, but that didn't seem feasible (electron package doesn't work against encrypted binaries, and neither does asar).
Please test it out and let me know

oh yay @captn3m0 that's super cool! I will test it with the next update!
Hi @bumi, I can help. I'm also an arch user and am equally interested in having an AUR package. Would you like to collaborate on publishing the AUR or would you prefer I do it? Also what help would you like regarding publishing the package?
