Thanks to reading url2pkg code, I could work out the url to use to grab a particular commit from github:

# url2pkg https://github.com/opencv/opencv/archive/7f14a278a71b065baf53340f7181c5cc62dc722e.tar.gz

url2pkg then tries to grab a different one...

 not going to say that's the problem but it's at least suspicious...

 anyway I thought url2pkg had been made to know about github.

 I think this is the clue:

 $ grep -r GITHUB_TAG /usr/pkgsrc/pkgtools/url2pkg/
 $ 

 I'm looking at it...
