This line should not be necessary.
Since "we" are in control of upstream... Ted, can you upload a plain
.tar.gz to Github via the releases page? That way we can avoid the ugly
distfile hackery. If you feel like it, you can provide a reop signature
for it too :)
This is not exactly common practice on Github, but in my opinion it is
the right thing to do. And some people do practice it, e.g.,
https://github.com/mupen64plus/mupen64plus-core/releases ... notice how
in addition to the Github-provided .zip and .tar.gz there is a tarball
uploaded by the project maintainers. It's my understanding that Github
tarballs are still theoretically prone to checksum issues should they
update any of {git,gzip,tar} on their servers...
