I suggest using symlinks to store user data in $HOME/.dwarffortress instead of /opt/dwarffortress for the new version, since old saves are incompatible anyway. The attached patch to the PKGBUILD and runscript achieves this for 34.11. I will do more testing today to see if this still works in today's 40.01 release.
