The source code is available on many of the Debian mirrors.(The mirror list can be found under http://www.debian.org) As an example the source for all the stable packages on the US debian mirrors is under: ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/source/ ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/contrib/source/ ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/non-free/source/ -- Brian Servis -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mechanical Engineering | Never criticize anybody until you Purdue University | have walked a mile in their shoes, [EMAIL PROTECTED] | because by that time you will be a http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/~servis | mile away and have their shoes.
