AKA - the I hate ABS patchset... This patchset adds source package information to the sync dbs. Once this is given the all clear, it will be followed by patches reading the information into libalpm and adding a "pacman -B" that will download the source package and extract to /var/build/pacman (or somewhere...). This would be a complete ABS replacement on Arch.
Queries: 1) I add a separate file to the db and reuse the variable names from the desc file. This means some probably duplication in the sync db reading code. Or should I add the info to the desc file and give it different names? 2) I add a -S/--source flag to add the source file description. This is similar to --delta and --files. I toyed with the idea of including the source information by default. Opinions on this?
