How would one go about building the client from source for Arch Linux?

Greetings! Thank you for the great app!

I'm currently using the official build on Arch Linux, but I would like to be able to install it using my system's package manager, Pacman.

The deploy script for Linux builds everything just nice; however, it also packages things to an installer, which is what I don't need.
Running cmake --install <builddir> doesn't help me either, because it only seems to install very few files.

My question is, how would I go about building the client in a platform-agnostic way (preferably without using CQtDeployer), and which files are essential for the installation? Arch Packages are generally dynamically-linked against system libraries, and I saw things like openvpn, which would already be present on a user's system.

Thank you for the feedback!
Unfortunately, we do not have enough resources to support Linux distributions and develop packages for various Linux versions.
But we are open to any contributions!
