This is not a QA issue, it is simply a "my tool doesn't handle this
case nicely issue."[1] You are blocking things based on non-policy
issues.  There is no policy indicating that stub packages must have
catalog name matching the old one with _stub appended.

As these packages pass all checkpkg tests, I don't see why they're not
released...?

Thanks

[1] If you think that searching the catalog with pkg-get is a valid
    enough use case, please put this forward through proper channels.
    I don't personally hold that opinion as shorter stem works fine
    and pkgutil handles this nicely anyway.  It's not something that
    can be imposed at your discretion at release time.
