Thanks, I see same. Doesn't help, though. What are you typing to get the source for the particular packages you see? I mean literally, what is at the end of $ apt-get source linux-??? I'm typing every conceivable combination of those package names and still get nothing. $ apt-get source linux-image-amd64 finds me some downloads, but they are for kernel 2.6. This one is really frustrating. $ apt-get source linux-image-3.2.0-2-amd64 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Picking 'linux-2.6' as source package instead of 'linux-image-3.2.0-2-amd64' NOTICE: 'linux-2.6' packaging is maintained in the 'Svn' version control system at: svn://svn.debian.org/svn/kernel/dists/trunk/linux-2.6/ Need to get 105 MB of source archives. Get:1 http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ testing/main linux-2.6 3.2.18-1 (dsc) [94.2 kB] Get:2 http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ testing/main linux-2.6 3.2.18-1 (tar) [98.5 MB] Is there a way to view which SOURCE packages are available in a Debian system? On a RedHat style system, I'd go google the SRPM directory and know what to look for. In Debian, I still can't quite understand where "the source packages" are. pj -- Paul E.
