I think you may be misinterpreting - the is no binary for igraph 0.7 because it fails make check, so I don't see how "Downloading and installing the new binary by hand works fine." can be true.
The *source* is available so you can compile it from sources, but that's different that what you asked for which was to install the *binary*.
