This isn't installing to the correct directory when building in a clean chroot:

$ bsdtar tf ocaml-spawn-0.15.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

Library files should go in usr/lib/ocaml/spawn not spawn. I suggest replacing the following lines:

  dune install --prefix "${pkgdir}/usr" --libdir "${pkgdir}$(ocamlfind printconf destdir)"
  mv "${pkgdir}/usr/doc" "${pkgdir}/usr/share/"

with

  DESTDIR="$pkgdir" dune install --prefix '/usr' --libdir '/usr/lib/ocaml' --docdir '/usr/share/doc' --release --verbose

See ocaml-ppx_expect and the OCaml package guidelines for comparison/example. This produces the correct output:

@gnaggnoyil I've added the dependencies. Thanks for pointing out the issue!

I encountered the following error when building this package:

==> Retrieving sources...
  -> Found ocaml-spawn-:0.15.1-1.tar.gz
==> WARNING: Skipping all source file integrity checks.
==> Extracting sources...
  -> Extracting ocaml-spawn-:0.15.1-1.tar.gz with bsdtar

    Aborting...

I then tried and installed aur/ocaml-ppx_expect and then the error goes:

File "bench/dune", line 5, characters 7-16:
5 |   (pps ppx_bench)))
           ^^^^^^^^^
Error: Library "ppx_bench" not found.
-> required by _build/default/bench/bench.pp.ml
-> required by alias bench/all
-> required by alias default

I then tried and installed aur/ocaml-ppx_bench and this time the makepkg process succeeded. I think ocaml-ppx_expect and ocaml-ppx_bench should be added as dependencies in PKGBUILD.
