I am not a lawyer, but to the best of my understanding, using such tarballs would be fine.  Since Jakub's repo only provides code to generate archive files but doesn't include actual archive files, and the generation code is licensed via the MIT license, we are free to use the code to generate archive files, which would then not fall under the copyright of the author of the generation code (Jakub).
