python2.7 is Needed and I believe by default Arch uses Python3.
pip is outdated (6.0.7-1 and needs to be upgraded to 6.0.8-1 ):
- $ sudo pip2.7 install --upgrade pip
You also may need to call 2.7 again during the install request:
- $ sudo pip2.7 install --process-dependency-links https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tarball/master
If you encounter an error with lib bcrypt Causing an Wrong Elf Class: ELFCLASS32 (x64 Systems):

"subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['python', '-m', 'synapse.app.homeserver', '--daemonize', '-c', 'homeserver.yaml', '--pid-file', 'homeserver.pid']' returned non-zero exit status 1"
You need to call 2.7 again by directly using
- $ python2.7 -m synapse.app.homeserver --daemonize -c homeserver.yaml --pid-file homeserver.pid
