Yup, but this is a different situation: it's about renamed source
packages where also the directory is renamed, so there's no mismatch
warning.
The unfortunate side-effect is that PET doesn't have any information
about the state of the package in the archive (which is no surprise
-- svn has has source package = directory = libFOO-BAR-perl, the
archive still has FOO-BAR).
Hm, maybe looking if there is a binary package with the same name in
the archive would help?

Yeah :)
