Plex Media Player

Hi, new to Arch and I'm trying to get Plex Media Player installed.

I have tried installing it both using packer and yaourt with no success, giving me some error. In the package page (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/plex-media-player/), there is a comment that gives a solution, but I'm unable to figure out how to do it..

I got it to work by editing ~/.conan/settings.yml and adding 7.1 to the gcc version:

gcc:
version: ["7.1", "4.1", "4.4", "4.5", "4.6", "4.7", "4.8", "4.9", "5.1", "5.2", "5.3", "5.4", "6.1", "6.2", "6.3"]


I've figured out this part and have edited the 'settings.yml' file and added what is needed. The next part is where I'm at a lost. I'm not sure where I could find the plex-media-player AUR folder and so on.

Any help is greatly appreciated,
Thank you!

I would use Plex on a web browser, but my phone can't seem to pick up web players to control it. Quite annoying if I'm laying on my bed and have to run to the laptop..



Here's the rest of the instructions in the comment..

I'm using the clean-chroot-manager to build packages. If anyone else is using that, to get the build working edit /build/.conan/settings.yml inside the chroot as described above. Then copy over your plex-media-player AUR folder with PKGBUILD to /build in the chroot, arch-chroot into the chroot and run

sudo -u builduser makepkg

in /build/plex-media-player'
