For future reference, instead of this:
> GIT_URI="https://github.com/Parchive/par2cmdline.git"
> GIT_TAG=v0.6.14
> inherit git
Just do this:
SRC_URI="https://github.com/Parchive/par2cmdline/archive/v${VERSION}/par2cmdline-v${VERSION}.tar.gz"
The same goes for retrieving any other tag in GitHub in the form:
https://github.com/PROJECT/REPO/archive/TAG/REPO-TAG.tar.gz
No need to respin though. GTG.
