Ewald,
You lost me. I'm not a programmer, so help me understand why this is 
necessary. The Debian source tree only contains three files for every 
package. Example:

http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/source/net/
snort_1.5.1-11.diff.gz  14-Feb-2000 03:51    47k
snort_1.5.1-11.dsc      14-Feb-2000 03:51     1k
snort_1.5.1.orig.tar.gz 11-Jan-2000 15:15   134k

Is this what you're referring to?
