The tarball from
https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/pre-releases/src/libreoffice-24.2.0.0.alpha1.tar.xz
does contain the file, and that is the only one we can control and has
that file and e.g. configure already generated from the configure.ac
file.

So either use git repository directly, use git bundles, or use the the
script to create your own tarballs from the repo:
e.g. /path/to/core/bin/lo-pack-sources --xz
--set-version=24.2.0.0.alpha1 /path/to/core
