Quickly tried this on my local setup. Uploaded a source package named
"foo", then tried to upload a "bar" source package with pkgname set in
.AURINFO to "foo" and received the error message: "You are not allowed
to overwrite the foo package." Might be a burp issue or some sort of
strange edge case.
