It doesn't matter if you intended it to use it named that way. Depending on
your method of downloading, the resulting files will be named differently,
breaking your script... just like on the build attempt on SBo. This is why
they have a policy on formatting urls for GitHub.

You need to make sure your script works no matter how it's built, whether
you download the source files from the browser, wget, or use a program that
builds the SlackBuild for you.

Try this to see why you need to change your urls:

wget
https://github.com/danielaparker/jsoncons/archive/refs/tags/v1.4.2.tar.gz
wget --with-content-disposition
https://github.com/danielaparker/jsoncons/archive/refs/tags/v1.4.2.tar.gz

Using the same link gets you two differently named files. Web browsers use
the latter, while wget (by default) uses the former. slackrepo, used on
GitHub to test these scripts, uses content disposition, which renames your
files to what GitHub suggests, which is jsoncons-1.4.2.tar.gz, which is why
the SlackBuild can't find it.

This is why it's SBo policy to properly format GitHub urls so that users
can use any method to download the source and the resulting file will work
fine in the script.
