In my experience, it seems like the PyPi tarballs are what the upstream
projects want distributors to use.

However, as Marius pointed out, sometimes the upstream projects choose
not to distribute their tests on PyPi, and in that case I like to use
whichever release has tests, since the tests help us be sure that our
packaging works.

So, I usually use what's on PyPi, but it depends.
