Analysing the web logs shows the majority of traffic to these links is from search engine bots. With those removed, there is about 1 hit per day from (probable) humans. Most users needing a tarball are better served by using official releases. Those needing latest code are better served by using git checkout. The tarball snapshots are not compelling enough to invest time in fixing the script that produces them. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
