Correction: the above URLs are reference to the Git repository, not to
the homepage.  I know Github conflates the two, but the above URLs are
not advertised to the end user.

The URL we advertise as "the homepage" on elpa.gnu.org are taken from
the "URL:" pseudo header in the package's main file (i.e. `<pkg>.el`).
For most (all?) packages hosted on Github, that URL is the same as the
one found in `externals-list` of course but I think the distinction is
important (e.g. we could refrain from including the reference to the
"homepage" on github while keeping the Git reference).
