Quoting FSDG:
A free system distribution must not steer users towards obtaining any
nonfree information for practical use, or encourage them to do so.

We are not steering or encouraging users to do any thing by displaying
the source url of the tarball, we are merely providing factual
non-opinionated information. But I guess we aren't telling the full
story and should tell the user that we made post download
modifications to the tarball to comply with the free software
distribution guidelines.
