Thanks. The problem with SRC_URI is that if it is defined, manifests
should include hashes of the source files. As g-elisp is aimed to
dynamically generate overlays on user's computer it means that during
this generation all the sources from elisp repos will be downloaded. It
isn't very nice.
The integrity of sources could be verified in ebuild, but I have not
found any hashes in elpa's repository info. May be I just failed in my
googling, so if you know a solution of this problem, I will implement it
with great pleasure.

Best regards,
Jauhien
