Main problem is actually the size of the data package. DD's here feel it's too 
large to place in the archive.

If you want to help, I think you should speak with upstream about delivering a 
smaller package. Though at this point, I'm sure it's more worthwhile to talk 
to upstream about making another release anyway.
