We have rather a bit of a problem.. As it stands it is not possible to locate the source tar.gz and .dsc without searching in all cases,
Consider the fragment from the package file (below). Notice how this multi-binary package creates .debs in two sections, it is indeterminate if the source package is in source/libs or source/oldlibs! I suggest that we enhance the source: field to include the section, for instace for aalib it could look like source: libs/aalib This is imporant for tha package section on the FTP site (that has links to the source package) and for the proposed apt-get source <package> command.
