Damn, I hit enter too early...

The title I wanted to write is: torcs' binary isn't in the PATH

Description:
% pacman -Ql torcs|grep torcs$
torcs /opt/torcs/bin/torcs

What we need is a symlink to /usr/bin, which seems to be missing in the PKGBUILD

Additional info:
* package version(s)
% pacman -Qi torcs|grep Version
Version : 1.3.1-2
* config and/or log files etc.

Steps to reproduce:
Try to run torcs on the terminal or try to start it from the menu of your desktop environment. It won't start, because there's no binary called torcs in the PATH

#!/bin/bash
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/torcs/bin
