severity minor
thanks

Thanks for your report.

Packages seem to use foo-source.tar.* vs foo.tar.* fairly arbitrarily. I
see a roughly one third to two thirds split[0].

If there is a general move towards probably dropping the -source then
I'll do it at some point but I don't have time right now. The tools
which use these things appear to handle either form fine.

Ian.
