There's a stable "0.5" release. We should use it instead.

We don't use source files from MELPA, as they are somewhat modified
in-place. Use git-fetch instead.

Also, could you move `origin' behind `source'?

I think this is not sufficient, because Emacs Flycheck Ledger will not
find the Ledger executable. You need to tweak
`flycheck-ledger-executable', using `emacs-substitute-variables'.

Could you send an updated patch?
