I see.  I thought the "src/" counted as a prefix.
For SVr4 packages, the default is <package name>-src so I
guess I need to do the same for IPS.

The issue is that the user is allowed (purposefully) to use partial names for ease-of-use.

For example, if you have:

application/foo
library/foo

...and the user types:

pkg install foo

There will be multiple matches and it would fail.

So:

application/foo
application/foo-src

...helps because:

pkg install foo

Will only match application/foo.
