Tracks Perplexity's own Debian repository, the feed the app updates itself from, via .omarchy/upstream.sh -- same shape as openai-codex-desktop. pkgver carries the build number from the pool filename because the index's Version field drops it and upstream rebuilds under the same marketing version; the pool wants the '+' percent-encoded. The launcher replaces the postinst symlink pacman never creates and defaults Chromium to Wayland.
