Yes, there is. Previously, you could see the button to aktivate/deactivate a source at once. Now it is hidden a bit in the don-t-know-the-name button in the corner down right, where you can deactivate AND/OR not-refresh a source. The always-refresh behaviour is pretty annoying when you only want to install a little package. I guess, the reason for that is, that these sources also work as update sources. -- Sandy List replies only please!
