Arch Linux -

There are two important points, only partly specified so far on bisq downloads site:

1 (specified already) AUR is the Arch User Repository where the community has package details for Bisq (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/bisq/)

2 (not specified, but important for unfamiliar Arch users) From the command line, you first clone the repo from AUR, then from the cloned directory use `makepkg -si`. That will read the PKGBUILD file to get, verify, build, and install the various tools necessary to install Bisq.

3* it should also be stated that when you're using AUR, you're taking your safety in your own hands. Be sure you trust the PKGBUILD file, or you could be footcannoning.

You will then have Bisq!
