 It's weird, but it is what it is. Don't we have any other package where the
github repo is the upstream URL, but the release tarball comes from somewhere else?

 Sorry, I hadn't seen your reply to 1/3, I had also seen your reply to 2/3 and
considered that Baruch and I had given sufficient feedback to warrant going back
to New. With your reply to 1/3, it indeed makes sense to set the entire series
to Changes Requested.

 However, I'm just going to apply patch 3/3 now, since there is no objection to
that one. So only 1/3 and 2/3 will be Changes Requested.
