Popcorn Time 3.2 Beta missing libudev.so.0 how to fix it on Manjaro

When you trying to install Popcorn Time on Manjaro Linux, you may end up with an error. On my case, I got the following error on Terminal. I was trying to install Popcorn Time 3.2 Beta on Manjaro 64 bit. I downloaded from this link:

http://popcorn-time.se/Popcorn-Time-linux64.tar.gz

Erro:

./Popcorn-Time: error while loading shared libraries: libudev.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

So, basically, Manjaro is missing libudev.so.0 which is needed by Popcorn Time application to run. So lets try to fix it by installing the missing package

yaourt libudev.so.0

Output:

[manjaro@manjaro Popcorn-Time-linux64]$ yaourt libudev.so.0
1 aur/lib32-libudev.so.0 0.1-1 (32)
Creates /usr/lib32/libudev.so.0 -> /usr/lib32/libudev.so symlink
2 aur/libudev.so.0 0.1.1-2 (200)
Creates /usr/lib/libudev.so.0 -> /usr/lib/libudev.so symlink
3 aur/libudev0 182-2 (23)
Dynamic library to access udev device information, legacy libudev.so.0.
==> Enter n° of packages to be installed (ex: 1 2 3 or 1-3)

Answer 2 to select the second package listed to be installed. Follow on screen instruction to install the package. Once finished, try to re run ./Popcorn-Time from your download directory. And viola, my Popcorn Time is now working on Manjaro 64 bit

popcorn time

Is it run properly? Fortunately no. I got blank window after that splash screen. So, my Popcorn Time does not working :(
