@yrif @nperry thanks for reporting and the patch! I can't reproduce the error. I tried yay and paru from an Arch WSL.
Can you still observe that behavior?

Hi @Mel, thanks for commenting and reporting the issue! I bumped the version to 2.0.0 . Hopefully that will solve the issue.
wl-clipboard recently hit 2.0 version, could you please bump the git version because it falsely pops up as an upgrade option every time:

-> wl-clipboard-git: 2.0.0-1 -> 2.0.0_beta2+5.ga60a0a468c-2

@adabru: thanks! I just updated the pkgver() function :)
Hi @lace, thanks for offering your help and contributing! I added you as co-maintainer so you can apply the change you propose.
@adabru: could you update this package to be compatible with wl-clipboard with regards to its version numbers?
Adding the following to your PKGBUILD should be enough:
pkgver() {
cd wl-clipboard
git describe --tags --abbrev=10 HEAD | sed 's/^v//; s/-/+/; s/-/./'
}
I'm happy to be added as a co-maintainer if you want :)
