Click on the 'Source Files' link of a non-testing package when a newer version exists in [testing] or [community-testing] e.g.
http://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/i686/ekiga/

The version in [extra] is ekiga 3.3.2-5 and I expected to see the source files for this version.
Instead, I get the source files for the latest version - 3.3.2-6 - which is currently in [testing].

I don't know if there's an easy way to fix this, but the current situation can be pretty confusing.
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Won't implement
Additional comments about closing:  Too complex to do right now with current setup.

This is since we use svn2git to display the source filesa nd i don't think svn can detect if something is in testing or not. So this might not be possible.

No real easy way to fix this without the git conversion being more sophisticated and using tags to mark where certain repos were pointed at or something. For now, this is just out of the scope of what we want to do; users that are looking at the source will need to do some manual legwork.
