I agree with that plan. The release files provided here https://github.com/google/googletest/releases seem to have different md5sums from the one that were shipped on googlecode. It is painful to replace those files on the mirrors. So the best solution is probably to host the <1.8 release files on a devspace (like mine). If you want to work on this, maybe you could open bugs / contact the maintainers of the packages that depend on gtest/gmock. As you say, this is not really a package a distribution should ship.
