In the specific case of releaseme for 99% of projects the situation you've
described is true, so what you are talking about is a non-issue.
There are only a small handful of projects where identifier != repository

handle that and be aware of the difference - usually because they requested
it.

I have no idea why this is all of a sudden a problem for Arch Linux.
