pkgrel is supposed to monotonically increase on each rebuild of the package.
Which is completely invalid in the AUR. How is the maintainer supposed to keep the user from doing rebuilds in between?
Why, because pkgrel is now out of sync with the AUR? The user can just bump the release a minor version, which pacman handles just fine and will still see an upgrade the next time the maintainer updates the package.
