the tags on the repository are not being parsed correctly, so the package version claims to be 0.0.2 (pulled from the tag cfg_support-v0.0.2) when it should be 0.15.0. the package version should be derived from the tags formatted as tectonic@x.y.x

Actually on further review this doesn't follow Rust guidelines either, and cloning tectonic-staging is basically doing nothing here (you don't have submodules configured correctly, because the submodule is not pointing to the local copy; you can refer to https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=libdxvk#n31 for an example of how to do this)

Check /usr/share/pacman/PKGBUILD-vcs.proto. And make sure to remove the leading v. As is, this package does not follow VCS package guidelines.

Edit: Also you will need to bump epoch to 1 because versions need to strictly increase.

Make a reasonable suggestion and I will consider it.

Why the weird pkgver? The git repo has versioned tags that could be used to provide a more sensible pkgver.
