This is incorrect, because the archive content changes, but the archive
filename does not; hence the copy we host on s.b.o. is invalid, and
since we've had check-0.15.2 since 2021-04-06, we've had a few releases
already that uses that version.

So we can't replace the one on s.b.o with the new one.

Instead, the only solution is to switch to using a git hash instead of
the tag.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
