I looked up the wiki page of the package: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/bzip2lib You can ask the Author what he did to the sources, all I can see that he offered the source.zip to lazarus-ccr, but did not fill in a SVN or GIT or another VCS section. The admin of Lazarus-ccr announced the release of the source.zip on the lazarus mailing list: http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/pipermail/lazarus/2009-November/046516.html So, for this package the author chose to use Lazarus-CCR only as a way to publish his component and get a download location, but not to maintain the sources in a VCS. > > How to make a download link for a package hosted somewhere else? Create a new wiki page and add the link. http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Release_new_component creates a nice template.
