Thanks for the explanation! I'll return the favor: In Lintian, we call them "sources with multiple orig components". On a related note, we generally do not use "packages" to refer to sources (our website is a notable exception). We usually eschew the barebones moniker altogether. In Lintian, installable packages are exactly that, and sources are sources. As an aside, I have been accused of reinventing terminology, but it's really helped Lintian to keep apart things that otherwise sound too similar. In my defense, I developed a low tolerance for confusion when trying to navigate, on a visit, Atlanta's 71 streets named "Peachtree".
