However, now that you mentioned swt, it brings up a good point. We can't do this for things like flashplugin just yet. So, should I create some sort of list of packages to NEVER generate sources for?
I think it would be a good idea to implement a blacklist. A lot of factors may warrant its use (size, license, version, etc.)
Hmm, I can only think about packages that we have a special permission to redistribute for: virtualbox-additions in Community and (I may be totally wrong here) flashplayer in Extra), don't know about others. (BTW both packages' "source" and binary are almost the same) What I don't know if redistribution from out site covers our mirrors too. -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)
