Does anybody know how to fix a PKGBUILD or what ever needs a fix, to
build muse2 2.1.1?

Hello, how's Arch for audio apps ? Are most of the apps installable
from their Arch repo ? Do they have a good choice ?
Cheers.

Since I'm short in time, I don't know how the Arch with systemd does
work for audio. For my old Arch, before the transition, there were no
issues regarding to audio applications, but at that time I more often
used Ubuntu, than Arch. I don't like the way Ubuntu seems to go, so I'm
installing a new Arch, but again, I'm not in a hurry, I've got other
priorities for my live at the moment, but music.
Last time I monitored the poll about audio distros started at LAU or
LAD, I had the impression, that Ubuntu and Arch are the most used audio
distros.
It's worse to have a try at Arch, but I'm not experienced with current
Arch. IMO it's more likely that Arch is good for audio, than that it
will fail.
For office work Arch is much better than Ubuntu Quantal, it has got a
much better performance, no DBUS issues etc..
For Debian and Ubuntu I experienced to many borked packages for all
kinds of applications, something that I don't experienced for Arch until
now.
Note that the AUR for Muse2 is edited by a workaround to get current
Muse, e.g. not provided by Ubuntu either.
The Arch mailing list has good and bad days nowadays, because it's
moderated. Arch Wikis, the best Linux Wikis in the past, today are in a
terrible mess, but they are still very good. I don't like forums, but at
least the German Arch forum members are very kind, it's not such a hard
place as LAU is ;p.
IMO community is important, sometimes people rave for distros without
good support. The best Linux is useless if you can't get support.
Regards,
Ralf

you are comfortable setting up your own system (with the help of
Archlinux's excellent wiki where necessary) Arch works fine. The rolling
release means access to up to date versions of most audio apps. I find
Arch works as well, if not better, with systemd, and I have found the
mail lists are very helpful when required as long as you do your do your
homework before posting. Ralf forgot to mention that the mail lists were
moderated reluctantly because the SNR had got so bad.

He also forgot to mention the specific topic which prompted mailing
list moderation - systemd arguments =). Arch is fine for audio (my
usage, admittedly amateur), but only for a certain type of user (those
who are prepared to invest time in understanding their system and
setting things up manually). It is not OOTB-suitable for most, and
hence won't appeal to the techie-musician who's much more musician
than techie (then again, what Linux distro does, currently?)
