r8168 package for zen kernel?

Hi,
I'm having some flaky issues with network and found several posts that suggest installing r8168 instead of r8169 for my controller (ASRock B450 mb).
This apparently is not a module in the kernel and installed separately through r8168 and r8168-lts. AUR has r8168-dkms, -pf and -ck, but alas it seems there is no -zen version.
I'm guessing this will not be difficult to add given two community packages exist and zen is now in the repo's also, but I wouldn't know how/where to do this.

Suggestions welcome!

Use the -dkms version.
