  I don't think it's a good assumption. For example it may break
in some build system where the machines are not allowed to access outside
machine. Keep it in the dist, it's heavier, but the only reasonnable safe way.
Also if you were to rebuild the package from source say 2 years from now,
the zip may not be available anymore from that URL.
