For packages where the last component of the source URI (after the last
'/') does not include the name of the package, please add something like
this to the 'origin' specification:

              (file-name (string-append name "-" version ".tar.gz"))

Without this, the name of the source tarball in the store becomes
something like /gnu/store/<HASH>-0.3.0.tar.gz, which is not so good.

In core-updates f586c877054, I fixed as many of these as I could find
(all the github ones anyway), but it seems that we'll have to make
another pass at some point.

In the meantime, could you fix the ones you've recently added that are
not already fixed in f586c877054?

      Thanks!
        Mark
