Does anyone know how to get keybase running on arm devices?
That doesn’t seem to work on Manjaro arm

Error downloading sources: gconf
You need to get gconf first.
So you need to edit the gconf PKGBUILD, where it says arch=(x86_64) to say arch=('aarch64') instead. Then build and install that.
After that, the peybase one should also work.
I might have a bad install I’m getting a lot of 404 errors when updating
In that case, you need to update to the latest mirrorlist:
https://forum.manjaro.org/t/another-mirror-transition-manual-intervention-required/132302
I can’t seem to find gconf in the package lists. The two aur packages don’t install either.
They both say The following packages are not compatible with your architecture.
Thats why I said you have to edit the PKGBUILD to enable the aarch64 architecture.
I tried to download the PKGBUILD file along with the other files from the AUR and build them with makepkg. I don’t know what it means by fakeroot binary.
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/gconf.git
cd gconf/
nano PKGBUILD
makepkg -si
Errors:
==> ERROR: Cannot find the fakeroot binary.
==> ERROR: Cannot find the strip binary required for object file stripping.
Do you have base-devel package group installed?
That is needed to build any package on Arch/Manjaro.

Alright, got the base-devel package installed and that let me build gconf. After that I tried to build keybase-git-arm. using this install command yay -S keybase-git-arm. I also tried to edit the PKGBUILD file to only build for aarch64 with no luck.

Looks like you have a source already in the build folder, which makes the patch fail (since it’s already been applied once). So remove your build folder (I have no idea where yay keep those). And try again.
Neither deleting the yay cache in ~/.cache or cloning the repo from the aur and build it using makepkg worked. Would that get around yay caching build files?
I have keybase on my Pinebook Pro. Did not have use the AUR. Just use pacman -Ss keybase keybase-gui kbfs. or in my case I use yay for my installer.

Thanks @axiomjoyride that worked. I had gotten it in my head that I had to build it because when I looked at what I thought was the package list for Manjaro and Arch there wasn’t a package for keybase on arm. @Strit is there a website for Manjaro’s packages like Debian’s?
Too be honest, i am not sure. Being on the Pinebook Pro has really sunk me into Manjaro. Before, I only checked it out in passing. I will see what I can find out.
UPDATE: Here is what I found … unfortunately is does not break it down by architecture, but is a start:
https://discover.manjaro.org/applications/
https://discover.manjaro.org/packages/

Not exactly.
You can always simply browse a mirror to see what packages is in the repository. Or you can search using Pamac or pacman on the device.
But most packages we get from Arch Linux ARM which have a package search page.
