 However, now that you mentioned swt, it brings up a good point. We
 can't do this for things like flashplugin just yet. So, should I
 create some sort of list of packages to NEVER generate sources for?

I think it would be a good idea to implement a blacklist. A lot of
factors may warrant its use (size, license, version, etc.)

Hmm, I can only think about packages that we have
a special permission to redistribute for:
virtualbox-additions in Community and (I may be totally wrong here)
flashplayer in Extra), don't know about others.
(BTW both packages' "source" and binary are almost the same)
What I don't know if redistribution from out site covers our mirrors too.

Ok, so this ran for all repos. I blacklisted a few known bad ones
(bash and readline, the mirror used for the source is borked), and the
following huge list of packages failed:
http://dev.archlinux.org/~aaron/sources/failed.pkgs

Take a second and scan these please - if you can, please correct the source.
As Eric pointed out elsewhere, we can merge source change from trunk
with archrelease, without the need to re-release the package (this
will fix abs too)


Keep in mind there's probably dupes, as it runs for both x86_64 and
i686 (and checks for an existing source for the correct version). Let
me try to clean those up real quick


Sorted. 431 packages:
http://dev.archlinux.org/~aaron/sources/failed.pkgs

Hm - that's cool and all, but I'm finding it hard to grep.  Want me to
make a todo list?


Aaron: Could you rerun your script to update the sources and the failed.pkgs file?

I'll try to fix them on my free time. I'll merge the change with archrelease if Ronald didn't added a license to their trunk yet.

It would be easier for me if I could run the script myself (where is it? do i have enough privs to run it?) so I could keep failed.pkgs up-to-date.
