This is starting to become a cat-and-mouse game. While it initially seemed that they were suggesting hosting tarballs elsewhere, they haven't replied to my proposal to either host it by archive.org or in a GitHub repo (through GitHub releases):

I am starting to think it might be better to yank Softmaker Office/FreeOffice from master and move this to NUR instead. It simply breaks too often to have these packages in your system configuration.

@romildo any opinions?

I guess I can ask on the SoftMaker forums once more.

Even if moved to NUR, the issue will persist. Someone would have to keep the check sums updated. I think I would keep it at nixpkgs and continue to fix it as new versions are released.
