Can you do makepkg in the clone of yay PKGBUILD from aur? That seems like a better solution than symlinking...

This is the correct thing to do when it breaks, recompile and link against the new libs. Otherwise you could see funny behaviour.

I did this. And it worked like a charm

That's how you're supposed to use AUR, I think. All yay, paru, etc do is make it convenient to do that while also helping with searching and upgrading them.
