Got it working, see https://0x0.st/Hr0f.patch (patch also disables, lto, that is not needed)
pkgver=19.1.0
pkgrel=1
_tag="v19.1.0"
prepare()
cargo xtask prepare-deps --platform linux --gpl --no-nvidia
as seen in https://github.com/alvr-org/ALVR/wiki/Building-From-Source
You should remove the pkgver() function since it's not a VCS package.
I am trying to build ALVR v19.1.0 but the build fails for me near the end:

@m00nw4tch3r, thanks a lot!! That was pretty fast. Works like a charm.
Fixed @hcjl
I receive an error during build:

rust default toolchain is stable and I updated right before buidling.
$ rustup toolchain list
stable-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu (default)
nightly-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
$ rustc -V
rustc 1.66.1 (90743e729 2023-01-10)
You need a newer version of cargo, install the rustup package (if you don't have it already), and run rustup default stable, rustup update.

Caused by:
feature workspace-inheritance is required
The package requires the Cargo feature called workspace-inheritance, but that feature is not stabilized in this version of Cargo (1.63.0 (fd9c4297c 2022-07-01)).
Consider trying a newer version of Cargo (this may require the nightly release).
See https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/reference/unstable.html#workspace-inheritance for more information about the status of this feature.

-> error making: alvr
docmax@game
@Incomingstick that's an odd one (to me): the cargo command should certainly support a target flag. cargo fetch docs
Is your rust installation managed by rustup (check package provider of cargo with e.g. pacman -Qo cargo)? If so, maybe try running e.g. rustup toolchain install stable && rustup default stable to ensure it is present and set default. The PKGBUILD does specify to use this anyway, but I guess it's worth a check?
Receiving the following error:

Needs PRESSURE_VESSEL_FILESYSTEMS_RO="/usr/lib/steamvr/alvr/" to make it work. Please include this.
