Hi,

Can you add the necessary provides / conflicts to this package ?

provides=("${pkgname%-bin}")

I've never made a PKGBUILD file before, but I used yours as reference and made updates where needed; Was able to get v0.6.0 running with this. Though, I noticed dark mode does not seem to carry over, not sure what that is about.
