Could you please fix them since they're spamming the pkgcheck output terribly?

I don't immediately agree this is wrong specification as an end user can have a different copy of the tree that have these versions available.

Maybe you can alter your pkgcheck and filter out things you don't like locally

The check doesn't check for available packages. It's saying that this spec can *never ever* match anything.

AFAICS, it complains about that when rlt/rgt operator is used without a revision. Not sure if that's valid for rgt though... lack of proper documentation for those operators is not helping.

Ok, it seems that the GLSA handling in pkgcore is indeed wrong.
