this bug has persisted through several updates. i posted about it here:
http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,11520.msg60958.html#msg60958as you can see in thread svolli was kind enough to repackage it,
i also tried repackaging from a later version of the source
neither of which solved the problem, so i just resigned myself to cloning over the git protocol as curaga suggested.
it would be nice to see this resolved, so if anyone's for looking into this more,
i'll help in anyway i can.
cheerio,
solorin
p.s. my memory is quite hazy - but maybe git.scm did finally work after loading all the extra 'dependencies'
mods - maybe this thread belongs under TCE Bugs?
