I'd suggest that we should instead strongly encourage the use of PyPI URLs.

I agree that pypi downloads are usually preferable. However I had to use github tarballs sometimes as upstream did not ship the test suite for pypi tarballs...


Sure, "strongly encourage" isn't "require".  There are cases where shipping the pypi tarball wouldn't meet Fedora's requirements, such as requiring the test suite to be present. But, conversely, the github tarballs also sometimes lack content that's in the pypi tarball, such as generated documentation.

In the past, where tests were not bundled with the pypi tarball, I've worked with the developers to fix their manifest so that it is, and that's worked out.
