Hi Eli,
The source code running the website is here: https://git.archlinux.org/aurweb.git/about/
We currently provide the url, but not the sources for download, since the use case for our community has not (yet?) proposed that the latter is something needed. I'm unsure who would use it other than repology. I don't understand what "url" and "sources" refer to. Obviously its not

If both refer to something inside the quote, then the reference is very far from its destination ...

Hi Uwe, First of all thank you for Repology, a interesting and useful project. I think the "url" and "sources" are refering to the 2 variables in PKGBUILD. "url" is the url to the upstream homepage, and "sources" are urls to download the source code, or in the case of VCS packages, the urls to fetch VCS repositories. I think "sources" is closest thing to "distfiles" you asked in your first message. Please see the manpage of PKGBUILD for details [1]. These are defined in PKGBUILD and generated in .SRCINFO for the AUR packages. And currently we only have "URL" field exposed in the aur rpc api.
