Eos: EOSIO compile under Arch

[Jzarecta]

I am getting Unsupported Linux Distribution. Exiting now.

When trying to compile under arch linux. Any help regarding this?

@Jzarecta EOSIO is not currently set up to build on Arch Linux. We will be adding more distributions in the future however.

What is stoping it from running on Arch? Is there a docker image?

[pacificcode]

@Jzarecta Yes, we do have Docker code and documents @ https://github.com/EOSIO/eos/tree/master/Docker.
You can also check the Docker/ directory of your clone of the EOSIO repo.

Any updates on support for Arch?

@pacificcode any hold up why eosio arch? any way to get some output?

@Jzarecta There are no plans to expand the currently supported list of Linux distributions. Arch users can manually install the required dependencies and run the build.

Anyone wishing to add Arch support to the build scripts is welcome to do so. Community pull requests will be reviewed.
