Reconcile pkgs of the same name that exist in both AUR and repos

[BluewyDiamond]

when i try to install hyprland from the AUR using aura -A hyprland it gives me this:

aura -A hyprland
aura :: Resolving dependencies...
aura :: Repository dependencies:
 hyprland
aura :: AUR packages:
aura :: Proceed? [Y/n] y
doas (user@computer) password:
warning: downgrading package hyprland (0.23.0beta-1 => 0.22.0beta-1)
resolving dependencies...
looking for conflicting packages...

From what I know it is supposed to grab from the AUR and not from the standard repository

I have used this command to install aura: cargo install aura-pm --version 4.0.0-alpha6

Edit:

Version 3.2.9 does not have this issue. I mention this to prevent any potential confusion.

Unfortunately I'm not able to reproduce this - hyprland is not available in the official repositories. Do you have special third-party package repositories registered in your pacman.conf that also contain a hyprland package? You can tell by doing: aura -Si hyprland.

Ah, then that's the issue. It's generally bad practice for AUR packages to have the same name as packages available in the official repos, but in this case, hyprland is coming from a third-party repo. Let me think about this.
