Downloading the file in question gives

ralf using barra:~$ curl
https://alexhallam.github.io/drat/src/contrib/cfsalesdata_0.0.1.1.tar.gz
version https://git-lfs.github.com/spec/v1
oid sha256:91cd243e7e65ee315419e70c8104a159aae64a629d180b29d38ed44646215101
size 162397527

So your hunch seems to be correct. Can you distribute the data over
two (or more) packages?
