In one of my shell aliases for yay using double u's, I noticed keep getting dev package bluez-alsa-git reinstalled continually upon every run, and I see it even happens without --devel switch.

I narrowed it down to the double u's as said, and that the installed version is different irregardless of the cached pkgbuild has same pkgver as installed version(updated from previous pkgver() run) and I don't select cleanbuild.

So, without --devel switch(and said double u's), then is continually reinstalled as regular package. With --devel(and double u's), then also reinstalled as regular package continually, until new commit, which then gets installed(correctly) as dev package(I tested with flipping char in vcs.json).

Latest yay/libalpm i.e. 12.3.5/14.0.0.

Many thanks in advance.

(Same issue for paru, reported here: Morganamilo/paru#1232)

Edit: I learned yay uses .SRCINFO, which pkgver() doesn't update unfortunetly, hence above issues, partly, as still the issue left of double u's and without --devel making it still down-grade devel packages, surely a bug atleast. For former(using --devel), I'll add --needed, and just waste some slight extra time, plus get install/uninstall'ed make-deps more annoyingly). Thanks.
