To verify my finding, I repeated the procedure (that is, the I f LD 
part).

Using the original version of setup.ini:

  - sheet "Full" shows tar and tar-debuginfo
  - sheet "Not installed" shows tar-debuginfo

(note: no debuginfo downloaded!)

Apparently I did my clicking on the "Not installed" sheet (where I 
normally
do my selection). Yes, that was a mistake of me.

Using a modified setup.ini:

  - sheet "Full" now only shows tar ...
  - sheet "Not installed" is empty

When I select the source box, the source code tarball is indeed 
"installed".

Summary: yes, it is still possible to "install" the source code tarball 
using
setup; however, as I have shown above, setup is confused by the 
"source:" line
in the *-debuginfo entry.

Regards,
Henri
