Where is monero-source-v0.18.3.4.tar.bz2? #9597

I downloaded the gzipped v0.18.3.4 source tarball linked on the release page. Per the instructions for security verification, I also downloaded the list of hashes. This file contains sha256sums for number of v0.18.3.4 files, but the only source release (I assume corresponding to the code in this repo) is monero-source-v0.18.3.4.tar.bz2 — it's not in the same compression format as the v0.18.3.4 source tarball in the release. I tried converting the source tarball from gzip to bzip2 with gunzip < v0.18.3.4.tar.gz | bzip2 > v0.18.3.4.tar.bz2 but the sha256 checksum still didn't match the one in the file for monero-source-v0.18.3.4.tar.bz2.

Where is the source release of the latest version of Monero and how do I verify its integrity?

You can download it here under Source Code (archive): https://www.getmonero.org/downloads/

The source tarball that is generated by GitHub is incomplete, it's not something we can turn off as far as I am aware.
