The recent update now includes dosfstools as a hard dependency instead of a optional dependency. My apologies if the metadata shouldn't have been updated as per the discouragement by the AUR guidelines to not update VCS-packages unless there were breaking changes in the build steps.

For those that are still on an older version of this package: you can reinstall the latest commit of MultiOS-USB by reinstalling the package. It'll automatically update the version number as well.
The (version) metadata won't show as latest here as it is discouraged by the AUR guidelines to update a VCS-package (packages with -git suffix) from upstream just for version number updates. Apparently, the PKGBUILD/metadata should only be updated when there are breaking build changes.
edit: made this more general so it can be pinned.
