Installation using paru fails with "tried to update but --locked was passed"

[yudjinn]

using paru -S markdown-oxide-git fails with the "tried to update but --locked was passed" error. I was able to resolve this locally by removing the --locked flag in the PKGBUILD

Error:

error: the lock file <REDACTED>/.cache/yay/markdown-oxide-git/src/markdown-oxide/Cargo.lock needs to be updated but --locked was passed to prevent this
If you want to try to generate the lock file without accessing the network, remove the --locked flag and use --offline instead.

Note: I tried using the --offline flag but this does require network access, obviously.
