Unfortunately, we can't use sources from MELPA.  The problem is: when a
repository get a new commit, the old tarball is *REPLACED* with the new
one on MELPA, so the package could never be built anymore, since the
source disappeared.  That's why we use tarballs directly from source.

You could use Deft source tarball https://github.com/jrblevin/deft/tags


BTW, to make a recipe more polished you could remove unnecessary new
lines, for example:

       (uri (string-append "http://stable.melpa.org/packages/deft-"
             version ".el"))

Likewise, unnecessary new line.

The home page says Deft is licensed under BSD license.  Could you check
it, please?

Oleg.
