The separate source packages should be relatively easy. They could just be another package, right? So you'd see something like: cygwin-1.3.3-1 cygwin-1.3.3-1-src I guess you could have a separate "Source" category, too, although that would complicate setup.ini parsing a bit. You could also have something like a "View Source" button which toggles whether source was selected or not although that might just be too many buttons... cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
