what's the reasoning behind no longer showing all files in the "source package"? I found this feature quite useful.
I've _always_ used this, almost on every package I came across. I don't want to be downloading anything I just want to take a rough look at. Would be good to have this back in some way or another. Brainstorm!
Did you read all my replies on this topic? If you still think that this should be implemented no matter what, you'd better open a feature request on the bug tracker.
You do not really address this issue aside from shrugging it off as an unneeded feature that costs one or two vulnerabilities. If it was really that useless it would not have been implemented in the first place. The loopholes are real, but the feature should not be forgotten. I will leave it up to the community to file a request to have this back, because with that we can really see whether it actually is as useful as a few of us claim :)
