So, upstream does indeed provide a URL redirector so we can use a

Upstream also plans to support the redirector for the long term [0], so I believe
switching to it in all the spec files our best move.
Maybe it would be beneficial to also work the change into the RPM rebase-helper [1] which
does automatic scratch builds when a new version of software is detected upstream? Does
anyone have experience with this project?
