Major Description
The (c)make scripts generate a wrong sbindir path.
With
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
-DINSTALL_SCRIPTDIR=bin
It generates an sbindir in galera_recovery of "./bin", which breaks galera_recovery, because "./bin" is a relative path to the current working directory. If the wd of the calling process is not /, then the script breaks at that point.

The problem is a general one, not specific to Arch.
The generated sbindir has to be "/usr/bin" (meaning the PREFIX has to be applied, too!) with the aforementioned parameters. Otherwise galera_recovery will fail if the current directory (working directory) is not the root directory, because the relative path "./bin" is not equal to "/bin".
The prefix is added only if `INSTALL_LAYOUT` matches "`STANDALONE`".
This comes from `scripts/CMakeLists.txt`, starting around line 189.

I do not have Arch Linux easily available so can you explain why @sbindir@ is incorrect ?
