lib32-spirv-tools 2022.4 has been added to multilib recently, but version 2023.2 still exists in AUR. It's unclear why the new package is an older version, or why the AUR package hasn't been removed as usually happens. (Should I allow my AUR helper to upgrade it? I assume I shouldn't.)
This task depends upon

Maybe just file an AUR deletion request? PM notified.

Obviously to stay in line with extra/spirv-tools.

I can't request deletion as I was not the one who added the equivalent package to [multilib] and I don't know if there was a reason for keeping it in AUR. (Hence this post...)

??? Anyone can request deletion if there is good enough reason (which clearly there is here). If you don't do it then I'm sure someone will eventually..
