I can see the value in that. Another option long planned is 
--install-source which would install the source rpm (parent rpm) of the 
rpm(s) included as arguments.

So swup --install-source kernel-smp swup-cron would download and install 
the kernel and swup source rpms. Other arguments like download-only and 
save-to would of course apply as well.

Anyway, such requests should be added to the swup bugzilla. I can't 
promise anything anytime soon, but it's nice to have it there as a 
reminder once time allows it.



kind regards
