They're numbering them locally. Please take a look at
http://paratype.0xdc.ru/

I dislike the mess on the URL and prefer to download from vendor
directly. So, seem that custom distdir is the best approach at
the moment. I'm going to convert the package, and try to contact
Paratype and ask them to stick with version numbering for their
files.

Many thanks for comprehensive feedback, Thomas!
