The VCS package guidelines suggest that the pkgver variable still be set to the most recent version, as according to https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/VCS_package_guidelines#The_pkgver()_function

Suggestion: since PKGBUILD has pkgver()function, perhaps setting the variable to 0 or something would be a good idea, to suggest pkgver is generated on the fly.

They've fully made the switch to meson in the master branch. I'm including a working PKGBUILD.

Hey do you mind removing the 'v' from pkgver?
