Thanks.

There are download links for both packages (archives install-able with
'package-install-file') on their homepages, and the install instructions
in the Git README and manual have explained how to build/download a
package archive and install it for a long time (mostly so people
installing from the repository also get the manual).  Not saying this
necessarily affected the amount of users doing that, but I'd prefer not
to inconvenience users who installed it in the documented way.
