Description:
lm_sensors was just updated from 3.6.0 to 3.6.0.r5313, there is *no* way there were 5313 commits since the last release. Not only that but the maintainer has directly just written `3.6.0` in the pkgver() and counting from the first commit.

Do official packages not have to conform to any sort of standards? I checked and using the examples in the VCS package guidelines works absolutely brilliantly. I am aware this may not be a critical bug, but it is absolutely an eyesore.

3.6.0.r41.g31d1f125
