Please make the package download the source code from ftp://ftp.embeddedarm.com/ts-arm-sbc/ts-7600-linux/sources/. Of course, the fact that they only provide individual files and not a tarball makes the exercise a bit annoying, but it's doable using _SOURCE pointing to tshwctl, and _EXTRA_DOWNLOADS for the other .c and .h files.
