    initial v1  
    33> That is not the issue here. My child theme is being served updates from a completely independent theme that I have *never installed* on my WP network. It got pulled in completely unexpectedly, just because it happened to share the same name.

    5 Exactly the same issue. Your child theme is served the updates of a (another) parent theme. The !WordPress.org API for update checks doesn't know what themes you've had installed, or where you got it from, just that it's tracking a theme by the same "name", that ticket is to add extra fields into the case, for example, the parent theme (Template field).
