There seem to be a couple of packages in the AUR repository, as suggested in this topic.
You’ll need ethernet or phone tethering connection.
To install from AUR use paru <package name>

how do i do it
can u pls guide me
Unfortunately, in any Arch-based distribution, "guiding" is the wrong approach. It may work once but a few hours later you may need more help.
As for paru, the only advice is that it will show you a preview of the PKGBUILD. Press q to exit and confirm to proceed with the installation.

As filo instructed use
paru <package name
in the terminal and use octupi to find the package you need

Careful here.
You correctly updated your system but have not rebooted.
This is important in this case, due to the new kernel you’ll have now.

It should be finished. You should have the terminal prompt ready after that.
If there were no error messages, try rebooting.
