That's the usual for Debian-based Linux distributions, yes (well,
probably RPM too, but it's been a long time since I used a RPM-based

MacPorts is more in line with Gentoo (actually the FreeBSD ports),
where everything is compiled directly from the source in your machine.
So the source is available, no matter what.
