How to fix breeze-plymouth in Arch's repository?

Hey, I ran into an issue where the breeze-plymouth package doesn't include a font that it needs for the initial boot image.
A short discussion on KDE's forums helped me find a fix.
TL;DR: the fix is adding this to /etc/mkinitcpio.conf:

BINARIES=(/usr/lib/plymouth/label-pango.so)

How can we get this fixed in the breeze-plymouth package in the Arch repositories?
This is the package breeze-plymouth.

I've never contributed to repo packages before, but I also don't have an account (and I can't make one myself, waiting on an email I sent to get one due to recent spam issues...).
I'm imagining this should be a simple fix - likely an initcpio hook to include the font added to the breeze-plymouth package?
