Installation went fine, but when I open Signal, I see the window with a blue background. How do I link the desktop with my cell phone registration? Desktop clients for other architectures would display a QR code when opening the app after first installation.
That (the QR code) is what you should be seeing as well. The plain blue background indicates that something went wrong during application startup. Try launching from a terminal and looking for any obvious error messages. Most likely it's a missing dependency that I forgot to note in my PKGBUILD (in which case I'll issue an updated package); I've also seen that on ext4 filesystems with certain less-common flags enabled.
