Thanks @patina, I updated the PKGBUILD with some small changes:
python-opencv is required, Alpaca won't even start without it.blueprint-compiler moved to makedepends.misaki-en, so I added that as optdepends instead.I've revised the PKGBUILD dependencies to support TTS/STT and the REMBG tool. As well as for some other errors.

python-opencv dependency breaks this package and prevents the program from starting:
ImportError: /usr/lib/libopencv_highgui.so.412: undefined symbol: _ZN9QtPrivate17expectedAllocSizeEmm, version Qt_6
Instead uninstalling python-opencv
yay -Rdd python-opencv
and installing opencv-python through pip
pip install opencv-python --break-system-packages
resolves the issue and alpaca starts correctly.
I've revised the PKGBUILD dependencies to support TTS/STT and the REMBG tool.

i needed to install
python-opencv
python-whisper
python-duckduckgo-search
Yes, needed to install libportal python-opencv and python-duckduckgo-search as @mab122 said.
They should be dependencies for the package.
