The PKGBUILD does not properly auto-update. To do that, you need to define the pkgver()
function, not just set the variable. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/VCS_package_guidelines#The_pkgver%28%29_function
Without that setup, makepkg
cannot determine the correct version at a glance, and this breaks automatic upgrades via AUR helpers such as paru.
Moreover, I don't think you're supposed to implement auto-updates in -bin
packages, that should be limited to VCS (-git
) packages. Perhaps this is different because it's a nightly build?

This PKGBUILD is auto-updating (you just need to build it again). Please only flag out-of-date when there is another PKGBUILD change required.
