I actually don't... and it doesn't file for the git case, it fails for
the non-git case (I only updated the git versions so the next time I

9999-r1 has this values:

P=quassel-9999
PN=quassel
PV=9999
PF=quassel-9999-r1
PVR=9999-r1 (was this the right variable name? I sincerely forgot)

the -r1 part is only ever used for the revisions in PVR, not on PV.

PVR is right. You only forgot PR=r1.
