How to prevent paru to update any chaotic-aur older package?

It looks like it has been temporarily dropped for some reason.

Yes, compiling a browser is insane unless you need to modify the source code or something. But there is a binary available you can install instead.

❯ paru -Ss ungoogled-chromium-bin
aur/ungoogled-chromium-bin 130.0.6723.58-1 [+88 ~4.16]

That one is pre-compiled and should have a considerably more modest build time.
