Normally distros (e.g. gentoo) would only include pari-seadata, but not
pari-seadata-big/small

Indeed, pari-data-small is covered by pari-seadata
and pari-seadata-big, and pari-seadata-big is considered an overkill
for most uses.

That is, looking at the diff, I would have removed

+SIZE (pari-seadata-big-20080412.tar) = 103526400
+SIZE (pari-seadata-small-20080412.tgz) = 670664
