This is really, really (really) annoying. Moreover it doesn't make 
sense since anybody can repost the archive and deployments are
better done through packages. I personnally don't want to approve a 
package with such a restriction done upstream.

Otherwise I think that the package is acceptable.

Not a blocker, but a comment would be nice.

My point is that Site.local is not really specific of ncl, one
could imagine that a file with the same name is in another package.
Disambiguating the same in SOURCES may be useful in settings where
the same SOURCES directory is used for all packages.

As I said, only a suggestion.
