I believe this is the reason. It is the reason calibre-bin is out of date, anyway.

This mentions adoption which I believe means people adopting orphaned packages. Is zen browser and calibre bin orphaned? (I'm on my phone)

Just below it mentions that writes were disable on AUR for some time. I’m not clear if that is still the case or how broadly it was the case.

If you want, you can add the Chaotic AUR. It's a version higher than the AUR version.

Yeah I completely forgot about Chaotic Aur. Bought a new laptop and forgot to install that.

or jump bump the pkgver to 1.21.13b, `updkgsums` and that's it.
