I believe fink tries to expand any tarball listed in a SourceN field.
You might have to go with a hackish option and "re-tar" the expanded
Source2 in %b/external/src, since one can't really count on a source
being in e.g. %b/../../.. .  I face this same problem with the Octave
Forge packages, which insist on being installed from tarballs for
current Octave versions.
