"can't open plugins dir: /root/.synergy/plugins" - try creating this directory manually? I dunno, maybe something in the arch repo version messes this up? "secondary screen unavailable: unable to open screen" - did you run synergy from within an xterm? if you switch to a vterm (ctrl-alt-F1, etc) it won't work. it MIGHT work if you specify a DISPLAY variable, but generally you want to run it from within the X session.
