The install guide told Arch users to run paru -S ivi-cli-bin and the AUR README linked the package page, but neither package exists on the AUR. The guide now builds the in-repository PKGBUILDs with makepkg.

Why
The install guide told Arch users to run
paru -S ivi-cli-binorparu -S ivi-cli, andpackaging/aur/README.mdlinked the package page on aur.archlinux.org. Neither package has been published: the AUR's RPCinfoquery returns no results for either name. Both commands fail.What changes
The guide's Arch Linux section now builds the PKGBUILDs from this repository with
makepkg -si, which works today. Both PKGBUILDs have been built and installed withmakepkgin anarchlinux:latestcontainer at 0.4.0. Both documents keep the AUR package URLs, marked as not yet published, so they stay right once the packages appear. Whether to publish to the AUR is still open, and when that happens the guide can go back to an AUR helper.
