The recipe recently changed from using tarballs to using git. There was
a reason for it although offhand, I don't remember what it was. I think
it was mentioned on the list. I just looked at the commit and sadly it
wasn't mentioned there (it should have been). It would be good to decide
which approach the recipe should be using and stick with that...

Cheers,

Richard
