For the sake of clarification, 

http://orgmode.org/pkg/daily/ doesn't provide the 'archive-contents'
file for the tarballs it distributes. As a result, the package manager
wouldn't know what tarballs are available for installation from the
repo.

Absence of 'archive-contents' file is a minor glitch and will be
addressed in due course of time.
