paru aborts installation of aur package due to missing older version in aur repo

[RubenKelevra]

Affected Version

paru v2.0.3 - libalpm v14.0.0

Description

Somehow paru thinks pretty often on my system, that certain older versions should be in the local aur repo, but aren't.

Instead of ignoring this fact, it aborts the installation of the newly compiled package, as it stumbles over the missing file of the older version.

I think it should just silently ignore this and add the new version to the repo.

The current workaround for me is, to run paru -Ld ladybird-git and then recompile the package, which is kinda frustrating.

@Morganamilo is this software still supported?
